Problems with video camera
Hi everyone,
I have a Jazz HDV178 usb video camera. When I plugin it defaults to storage mode, which works fine, when I switch to camera mode linux doesn't recognize it (ls /dev/video* brings up nothing). I have no other audio or video devices installed. I am running Ubuntu 11.04, any help would be great thanks. |
post dmesg in both modes
check their site |
When I type in dmesg the response is very long, is there a way to shorten it or find out exactly what part you need?
|
dmesg|tail
will be short |
When the camera is set to storage dmesg gives the following:
[59886.771150] FAT: Filesystem error (dev sdb1) [59886.771153] fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 0) [59886.771245] FAT: Filesystem error (dev sdb1) [59886.771247] fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 0) [59886.771338] FAT: Filesystem error (dev sdb1) [59886.771340] fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 0) [59886.771434] FAT: Filesystem error (dev sdb1) [59886.771436] fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 0) [59886.771522] FAT: Filesystem error (dev sdb1) [59886.771524] fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 0) When the camera is set to camera, dmesg gives the following: [59886.771245] FAT: Filesystem error (dev sdb1) [59886.771247] fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 0) [59886.771338] FAT: Filesystem error (dev sdb1) [59886.771340] fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 0) [59886.771434] FAT: Filesystem error (dev sdb1) [59886.771436] fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 0) [59886.771522] FAT: Filesystem error (dev sdb1) [59886.771524] fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 0) [59961.516457] usb 1-5: USB disconnect, address 6 [59965.804074] usb 1-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 7 |
take the memory card out turn it to cam mode
in your package manager install guvcview try the cam in guvcview |
Even when I take out the card it still doesn't want to work. The new dmesg is:
[ 668.417129] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] 70464 512-byte logical blocks: (36.0 MB/34.4 MiB) [ 668.417742] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off [ 668.417750] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 00 06 00 00 [ 668.417756] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 668.420122] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 668.422220] sdb: sdb1 [ 668.424248] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 668.424258] sd 4:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk [ 680.158178] usb 1-1: USB disconnect, address 8 [ 684.440074] usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 9 I'm really not sure what this all means. |
with the cam plugged in and turned on to cam mode
in a terminal type lsusb click enter |
