hello all, i know this has been on the list many times, but ... i'm trying to use a cheapo usb webcam with pix_video and have gotten this far:
;;when pix_video loads, the following appears in the terminal:
cap: name Logitech USB Camera type 513 channels 1 maxw 352 maxh 288 minw 176 minh 144
picture: brightness 18779 depth 24 palette 4
channel 0 name Camera type 2 flags 0 buffer size 811008, frames 2, offset 0 405504
frame 0 0, format 4, width 176, height 144 ;;so far, so good. when i give it this message - [mode PAL 0 ( ;;it responds GEM: pix_video: Opened video connection ;;when i start rendering: GEM: Start rendering /dev/video0: Device or resource busy ;;which looks suspiciously like a kernel message a la:
try to send the [mode PAL 0( message to the [pix_video] _after_ turning rendering on ! this is kind of a known bug.

[root@t0ast root]# /sbin/rmmod usbcore usbcore: Device or resource busy
and no, no other programs are using /dev/video0 when this happens. does anyone have a clue as to what's going on here? is there any reason why ANY video device (i.e.: anything that works with xawtv, say) won't work with pix_video?
thanks, bill
