Logitech C920 not working with uvccapture on domoticz
Posted: Wednesday 19 October 2016 8:00
Hello all,
I am trying to connect Logitech C920 webcam to Domoticz 3.4834 on raspberry pi. I can take picture from the raspberry pi command line using the uvccature command but not through Domoticz.
The webcam connects to the Domoticz just fine and it takes the picture for the first time and after that if I try to capture the image from Domoticz it just gives the image it took the first time, it doesn't take new snaps after the first time. I can confirm this because, there is a blue colored LED ring on the webcam which flashes when the camera is active. It flashes the first time but after that it doesn't flash and Domoticz gives the image it took the first time. The video stream works just fine. I can click the video icon on domoticz then the blue colored ring on the camera starts flashing and I can see the video feed from camera.
Taking snaps works when I issue the same command through the raspberry pi console. I am using the exactly same parameters for uvccapture as given in the settings > other in domoticz.
This is the command I use through raspberry pi command line: uvccapture -S80 -B128 -C128 -G80 -x800 -y600 -q100
I don't know what the problem is.
I will really appreciate the help.
Thank You,
