Webcam support request

Post by trixter »

Gentoox is wonderful!! Great work.

ShALLaX, could you add support for a webcam in gentoox? The tutorial posted on this site by another just doesn't seem to work. Does gentoox home edition v2.1 include video4linx support?

If I donated a webcam would you dig into the problem? Thanks.

I am with you on that one :D If ShALLaX is up for it I will split the cost with you. I followed the tutorial the same as you but no luck (I tried both Pro & Home).

Cheers

How about it ShAALaX. Will you take up the challenge if we buy you the webcam? I am certainly happy to do so if it means I can get this thing working on the xbox.

Yes, it depends entirely on which webcam you have. Thats up to the user to add.

Webcams are already possible to run on an Xbox. I am currently running my webcam off of my Xbox. My webcam is a Logitech QuickCam 4000 Pro

The website is here: http://digitaldennis.net/webcam.html

I am using the Camsource script to run the cam. I used the tutorial that was on this forum. If you have any questions, I can try to help
