guvcview / Tickets / #13 Guvcview 1.7.1 doesn't work with kernel 3.16

Paulo Assis - 2014-10-27

Hi,
the current ubuntu guvcview version is broken with kernels >= 3.16, you need the latest version 2.0.1
You can get it from the sourceforge download (Files) section or from one of my ppa's:

stable: https://launchpad.net/~pj-assis/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

testing (latest git): https://launchpad.net/~pj-assis/+archive/ubuntu/testing

Regards,
Paulo

  I stand corrected, I had originally tried your stable ppa which has only
  version 2.0.0 of Guvcview for Trusty Tahr but as soon as I enabled your
  testing ppa that has version 2.0.1 of Guvcview for Trusty now it works
  again. Thank you very much for this great piece of software! I will update
  my blog post to include the instructions for getting Guvcview to work with
  Ubuntu Utopic Mainline 3.16 kernel. Thanks again!

  I am running xubuntu 14.04 and when I run Ubuntu Utopic mainline kernel
  3.16 guvcview does not work. Just FYI. I documented the errors and what not
  at my blog if interested.

  Yes, you are using the buggy version 1.7.3, you need 2.0.1
  
  You can get it from one of my ppas:
  
  stable: https://launchpad.net/~pj-assis/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
  
  testing (latest git): https://launchpad.net/~pj-assis/+archive/ubuntu/testing

This helped!
Thank you very much!

But... with this version 2.0.1, when video size became 2 GB, guvcview hung up... :-(

All of the reported issues should be fixed in the latest release (2.0.3), the 2Gb size problem in 32 bit machines should now be fixed to.
