VOXL camera configuration
-
@Chad-Sweet
My UVC camera is recognized on the VOXL but the voxl-uvc-server will not connect to it.voxl:~$ show-video-device-info.sh /dev/video2: e-CAM83_USB 2560:c184 /dev/video3: e-CAM83_USB 2560:c184
Here is the
ls -la /dev/video*
command output from my Linux PC.crw-rw----+ 1 root video 81, 0 3月 31 09:20 /dev/video0 crw-rw----+ 1 root video 81, 1 3月 31 09:20 /dev/video1 crw-rw----+ 1 root video 81, 2 3月 31 09:20 /dev/video2 crw-rw----+ 1 root video 81, 3 3月 31 09:20 /dev/video3

voxl-uvc-server only supports a few data types. You may need to modify the code to support the format of the e-CAM83
If you have a gstreamer command that works on your linux box, it should work on VOXL as well though.
-
@Chad-Sweet
Thank you so much for looking into this for me.Can I ask for some assistance with modifying the voxl-uvc-server?
Do I modify the voxl-uvc-server C file, then make it into an ipk and push it into the VOXL?
-
The instructions are in the readme here: https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-uvc-server
-
@Chad-Sweet But yes, you modify the code, build it, and push the IPK to VOXL
-
@Chad-Sweet
Is the Hires + TOF + Stereo (one stereo configured as the tracking camera) configuration possible?
In case the e-CAM83 will not work with the Seeker. -
@Chad-Sweet
Just to confirm,
If I modify the voxl-uvc-server/src/main.c file, to allow H264 format, would this work?
Or does the modification need to happen somewhere else in the main.c?
I’m just not exactly sure what or where I need to modify the voxl-uvc-server to make my UVC camera work. -
@Kris H264 is not supported in voxl-uvc-server. See https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-uvc-server/-/blob/dev/src/main.c#L64. You may be able to add support for it but there are some tricky aspects to H264 streaming that you would need to be aware of before attempting it. Seems like you should start with the video3 interface since it supports 640x480 YUYV
-
@Eric-Katzfey
Ok, thank you.
I will start with attempting /dev/video3 first. -
@Eric-Katzfey
It seems as if VOXL1 is not able to connect with my UVC camera.

@Kris You can't use autovideosink on VOXL because it doesn't have a display
-
@Kris Maybe try fakesink instead?
-
@Eric-Katzfey
I have tried both fakesink and playbin.
Neither of them work either.
Has anyone gotten gstreamer to successfully work on VOXL1? -
@Eric-Katzfey
I also have another UVC camera, but it only outputs MJPG (compressed) and YUY2 (uncompressed 640x480 30fps) formats.It works for streaming, but I am trying to record the video to the Seeker’s SD card.
Is there a way to do this with Gstreamer or a similar program? -
@tom
Could this be the reason why no devices are found when I usegst-device-monitor-1.0 Video/Source
on the VOXL1? -
I see that the VOXL1 has the
gst-plugins-good
.
Is it possible to also add thegst-plugins-bad
andgst-plugins-ugly
? -
@Kris We use GStreamer in our voxl-streamer application. It does work on VOXL1.

@Eric-Katzfey
Ok, thank you for the confirmation.
