<p dir="auto">I followed several tutorials over the web but I couldn't get my SQ11 Webcam to work. I'm working on an Omega2 with firmware version 0.3.2 b233.</p>
<p dir="auto">When I run <code>ls /dev/v*</code> it returns among other stuff <code>/dev/video0</code>, so I guess the camera is detected successfully. I also tried the SQ11 previously on my computer, it works.</p>
<p dir="auto">I tried several things:</p>
<ul>
<li>Run <code>mjpg_streamer -i "input_uvc.so -r 1280x720 -f 15 -d /dev/video0" -o "output_http.so -p 8080 -w /www/webcam"</code>, I get the output:</li>
</ul>
<pre><code>MJPG Streamer Version.: 2.0
 i: Using V4L2 device.: /dev/video0
 i: Desired Resolution: 1280 x 720
 i: Frames Per Second.: 15
 i: Format............: JPEG
 i: TV-Norm...........: DEFAULT

 Init v4L2 failed !! exit fatal
 i: init_VideoIn failed
</code></pre>
<ul>
<li>Run <code>mjpg_streamer -i "./input_uvc.so -f 30 -r 1280x720 -d /dev/video0" -o "./output_http.so -w ./www -p 8080" -b</code> and it returned</li>
</ul>
<pre><code>enabling daemon moderoot@Omega-XXXX:~# forked to background (7126)
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">But when I went to <code>http://192.168.3.1:8080/?action=stream</code> it gave me an ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED error.</p>
<ul>
<li>Run <code> mjpg_streamer -i "/usr/lib/input_uvc.s -d /dev/video0" -o "output_http.so -p 8080"</code>, getting the output</li>
</ul>
<pre><code>MJPG Streamer Version.: 2.0

       Perhaps you want to adjust the search path with:
       # export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/plugin/folder
       dlopen: Error loading shared library /usr/lib/input_uvc.s: No such file or directory
</code></pre>
<ul>
<li>I even tried making a simple photo with <code>fswebcam --no-banner -r 1280x720 `date +"%Y-%m-%d_%H%M%S"`.jpg</code>, but I got the error</li>
</ul>
<pre><code>--- Opening /dev/video0...
Trying source module v4l2...
/dev/video0 opened.
No input was specified, using the first.
Unable to find a compatible palette format.
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">Is there any kind soul who could help a noob out?  I would be very thankful, as I'm very lost and frustrated, and I don't know what else to try.</p>
<p dir="auto">Kind regards,<br />

edit: also you might save time if you just search google.  took me 3 minutes to find this and although it's old it still may help you. there are others, btw, but i already used about 10 min. so time to move on. good luck.

I did the command dmesg, and I read the whole log, and I didn't have
uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device USB 2.0 PC Cam (5149: 13d3)
input: USB 2.0 PC Cam as /devices/platform/101c0000.ehci/usb1/1-1/1-1:1.0/input/input0 

like @CAP-33 (or something similar). So I assume that my webcam is not detected by the system, it was probably the problem! So I will take another. Thank you again

What method do you use to store the images on your Omega? Trying to setup the MicroSD card to store them or maybe post them to a server.
