report error in wary 5.3.90

Did you install both packages? I tested it in Wary 5.3 with two different webcams and guvcview worked. But it may not be compatible with all devices.

I did not test it in 5.3.90.

[Edit] I checked in Wary 5.3.90 and guvcview worked there too. Try the following command. Does it wake up your webcam?

If you install the two packages. Now if I work well, but some programs like Mplayer and Ogle DVD not working. It will be up to check the dependencies. Thank you!!! Wink

error message as follow:

"guvcview doesn't start: Fatal: g_thread NOT supported"

hikohan yes I have the same problem. I think maybe the incompatibility with GTK.

I am working with slacko 5.4 no precise.

But when I run command:

mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:width=768:height=450:device=/dev/video0 -fps 3

work ok.

Someone can give us any help.

Thanks.
