      @Eric-Katzfey Will it remain public?

        @wilkinsaf Yes, it will remain public. Did you get a chance to see if the changes worked?

            We seem to be having trouble finding the camera now which is weird. I wonder if we need to specifically download and install the drivers?

              @wilkinsaf No, you shouldn't need any drivers. Any USB device should be listed with lsusb, even without any specific drivers. Does it show up when plugged into a regular Linux computer?

                @Eric-Katzfey Yes, we have hardwired it into a computer before. We have seen the stream using ffmpeg on VOXL as well. We just can not seem to get voxl-streamer to work with it

                  @wilkinsaf If you unplug the camera from Voxl does anything disappear from the lsusb list?

                    Yes, the top 3 entries in lsusb screenshots above are all cameras. I can unplug those one by one and see them disappear.
                    Would it matter if we have 2 UVC cameras?

                      @wilkinsaf Just try one at a time for now. And when you plug the camera in do you see a new /dev/videoX entry appear?

                        @wilkinsaf Also, were you able to get the ordering information for these cameras? If they aren't too expensive I would like to order at least one of them to test against.

                          Yes, let me try one at a time now.
                          Here are the two cameras

                            Good news, I was able to get voxl-uvc-server to spin up with one usb camera connected.
                            21d09d1b-d888-45a2-a663-51af22ab926b-image.png

                            However, I am getting this issue from voxl-streamer

                            Seems like I need to figure out the frame size and set the correct one. Let me play around with that now

                              @Eric-Katzfey Doesn't look to be frame size as the "sizes" seem non-deterministic

                                @wilkinsaf Great, that's some progress! What about if you try the other camera? Not sure why the frame length is different. For a given resolution and frame format that number should be a constant. (e.g. 640 x 480 x 2).

                                  Good suggestion. Let me try that.
                                  Check out the length when uvc server fires up

                                  Got frame callback! frame_format = 3, width = 640, height = 480, length = 613376, ptr = 0
                                  

                                  interesting

                                    @wilkinsaf You can try modifying this line in voxl-uvc-server: https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/modal-pipe-architecture/voxl-uvc-server/-/blob/dev/src/main.c#L83

                                    Make it read: .size_bytes = 614400, \

                                    Then rebuild it and try again.

                                      @Eric-Katzfey Sounds good.

                                      The other camera is giving me this error

                                      The one I compiled could not find the device at all

                                        @wilkinsaf Perhaps you are working on master branch? The latest and greatest (The one you should be using) is the dev branch.

                                          @wilkinsaf Thanks! I'm going to order them so that I can have them as part of our normal USB UVC camera test suite.

                                            @Eric-Katzfey Thanks Eric!

                                            I switched to dev branch (slightly embarrassing as you told me to switch to dev) and pull

                                            voxl:~/voxl-uvc-server(dev)$ git pull origin dev
                                            From https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/modal-pipe-architecture/voxl-uvc-server
                                             * branch            dev        -> FETCH_HEAD
                                            Already up-to-date.
                                            

                                            I made sure to install the correct libuvc ipk

                                            voxl:~$ opkg install libuvc_1.0.2_202112182223.ipk
                                            Collected errors:
                                            * opkg_prepare_file_for_install: Refusing to load file 'libuvc_1.0.2_202112182223.ipk' as it matches the installed version of libuvc (1.0.2).
                                            

                                            I then built the voxl-uvc-server, ran Makefile, and tried to run
