About 8-12 months ago I wrote a script that pulled together several mplayer commands to perform various activities. One allowed me to press the s-key to take snapshots with my webcam. Useful for recording the sensors I build.
Now it:
no longer works under Slackware 13.37 and mplayer (phonon-mplayer-20101213-i486-1).
I scanned the web for working commands and what I found also does not work:
Most yielded:
My initial command produces:
for vd=1 as well.
I am currently using Slackware 13.37. Under 13.0 there was a problem of /dev/video0 and /dev/video1 getting assignments exchanged on different boots. Since the webcam should not have a tuner that error is suspicious.
The video format 0x31384142 is not one which I have seen before. The inability to set norm to NTSC and getting fps is also questioned.
Anyone see a failing? Suggestions & comments welcomed.
