Hi all, I'm using Fedora 9 and I want to get my webcam to work. This is my configuration (x86_64 system): Webcam: Logitech QuickCam for Notebooks. It uses the zc3xx driver (kernel 2.6.27.19-78.2.30.fc9.x86_64) Cheese 2.22.3 Ekiga 2.0.12 GStreamer 0.10.20 The webcam works fine with Ekiga, v4l2 is selected in the Preferences tab. It doesn't work however in cheese or others (skype). cheese -v reports this when trying to record video from the webcam: (cheese:4069): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_value_set_fraction: assertion `denominator != 0' failed Detected webcam: USB Camera (046d:08dd) device: /dev/video0 (cheese:4069): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_element_set_state: assertion `GST_IS_ELEMENT (element)' failed (cheese:4069): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_element_set_locked_state: assertion `GST_IS_ELEMENT (element)' failed I tried to use gstreamer-properties to figure out what is happening. In the video tab, the output seems to be fine, the test runs OK. However, when I try to run the test for my webcam (it is detected here again) with v4l2, I get this: gstreamer-properties-Message: Skipping unavailable plugin 'artsdsink' gstreamer-properties-Message: Skipping unavailable plugin 'esdsink' gstreamer-properties-Message: Skipping unavailable plugin 'v4lmjpegsrc' gstreamer-properties-Message: Skipping unavailable plugin 'qcamsrc' gstreamer-properties-Message: Skipping unavailable plugin 'esdmon' gstreamer-properties-Message: Error running pipeline 'Video for Linux 2 (v4l2)': Could not negotiate format [gstbasesrc.c(2436): gst_base_src_start (): /pipeline0/v4l2src3: Check your filtered caps, if any] and the program closes. If I select v4l, I get a window full of green noise. So I suppose this is some problem related with the v4l2 plugin for gstreamer, but I don't know how to fix this. I've Googled it and I saw people from other distributions having the same problem, but usually an update fixed the problem. My Fedora system is up to date. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
