Re: [Playerstage-users] Is Player right for my project?

[Matt L. <mh...@gm...>]

thanks aravind, that worked.

paul, i have built and installed the latest player from source. i realized
the laggy video problem was due to the -rate option not being set on
playerv. after setting the rate to 30, the video is smoother. however, i am
still having problems with pan and tilt. as soon as i try to subscribe to
the ptz device using playerv, i get the following error in the player
server:

warning: opening /dev/video0
warning: V4L2_CAP_READWRITE check failed (ignored)
warning: Adding control for [Pan (relative)]
error: UVCIOC_CTRL_ADD - Error
error: Driver failed to Setup (-1)

is there something i can do to get more details on this error? here is my
config:

driver
(
    name "camerauvc"
    provides ["camera:0"]
    port "/dev/video1"
    size [320 240]
)

driver
(
    name "sphereptz"
    provides ["ptz:0"]
    port "/dev/video1"
)

thanks,
matt
