I'm quite new to linux and find myself in a sutuation that I need to get video from a webcam in Pure Data. I have a usb microscope which I'm able to open in PD, but only at the lowest resolution. So, someone told me to open it in VLC, change the resoltion there and to pull out the usb-cable fastly for the settings to be stored in the cam.

But I don't seem to manage to open the cam at different resolutions in VLC. Each time I try to open it with different values I get something like:

v4L2 demux error: invalid tuner 0
v4L2 demux error: cannot get video input characteristics (invalid argument)

v4L2 access error: invalid tuner 0
v4L2 access error: cannot get video input characteristics (invalid argument)

v4L2 main input error: open of 'v4l2:///dev/video0' failed: (null)

I work with pure dyne 9.11

Does anyone have an idea?

Grtz,

Blender's Open Movie Projects have already proved that it's possible to produce stunningly high-quality 3D animated films exclusively using free software in a studio setting. Now, a new animated short film called Tube, inspired by the ancient epic poem of Gilgamesh, is expanding on that work to bring free culture to the masses. The Tube project is not merely evidence of the technical capabilities of free software tools like Blender, PiTiVi, and Fedora GNU/Linux, but living proof of their viability for independent filmmakers. The most impressive aspect of the project is that it has managed to come together through distributed collaboration between 56 artists from 22 countries — some of which are at war. Tube truly highlights the incredible unifying power of free software tools and a free culture model.



Within the first few days, Tube's Kickstarter campaign reached the minimal baseline goal of $22K and subsequently hit Slashdot. As the film enters the final stages of production, the Tube team needs as much support as they can get to make this story a huge success for free software, free culture, and independent animators everywhere. With the production funding target of $50K in sight and just a couple days left in the campaign, this is your last chance to support this ambitious undertaking and get your name in the film as a backer. There is enormous potential here; as Mashable questions, 'Will This Open-Source Animated Film Change the Movie Industry Forever?'

The film's public release is scheduled for 7 months from now along with all the assets, source, and project files under the free culture and copyleft Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike (CC-BY-SA) licence. For an in-depth discussion with the team, check out this interview with the Tube project founders on Libre Graphics World. It's up to us now to help Tube affirm the legitimacy of producing free cultural works in a fully free software workflow. ]]> Linux News dpic http://www.linuxforum.com/threads/3079-Last-chance-to-fund-Tube-a-free-culture-Blender-animated-film! Custom URL Handler http://www.linuxforum.com/threads/3078-Custom-URL-Handler?goto=newpost Sat, 12 May 2012 08:17:17 GMT Hi guys. I need user to launch my app, when url link clicked. I'm trying to register custom url handler, and i found this:
To Registering a Protocol on Linux
Code:
gconftool-2 -t string -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/foo/command 'foo "%s"'
gconftool-2 -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/foo/needs_terminal false -t bool
gconftool-2 -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/foo/enabled true -t bool
Then put the settings from your local gconf file into the global defaults in:
Code:
/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/%gconf-tree.xml
The problem is, i don't know how to put this from my local gconf file to /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/%gconf-tree.xml
Should i do it by hand? It's pretty complex xml file, is there easy way for doing this?
And one more question: According to gconf home page, /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/%gconf-tree.xml is system defaults. Why should i put there my url-handler strings, i thought it should look in users ~/.gconf folder first, but it didn't.
So i'm confused here, please help me to understand this. Right now, after executing above commands (gconftool-2 ...) firefox and chrome didn't handle my protocol....
Any help would be appreciated, thx. ]]> General Linux Stalkerx777 http://www.linuxforum.com/threads/3078-Custom-URL-Handler IP webcam? http://www.linuxforum.com/threads/3077-IP-webcam?goto=newpost Fri, 11 May 2012 19:12:12 GMT Ok, here's the deal. I need to figure out how to use the webcam on my laptop as an IP cam. I'm running Linux Mint (can't remember the version right off but its the one based off Ubuntu 10.04). My g's ex husband is trying to terrorize her and this may be the only way she and I can catch him and have him put away. Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
