I did briefly investigate using the H.264 stream direct from the C920 camera, however, there are incompatibilities between what the camera produces and the RFC 3984 encapsulation into RTP. In particular, "slice" sizes for packetization mode zero. I could also not figure out how to force I-Frames from the camera. As is often the case, a system designed fro streaming does not work for videotelephony. It is not as simple as taking the camera output and feeding it into the sink stream. GStreamer is supported as of Lacaille and will continue to be supported. However, gstreamer has it's own "quirks" and there are still a couple of things not yet implemented, becuase I have not yet figured out how. For example, handling FIR/PLI/VFU commands that force an I-Frame in the encoder. As always, any help from anyone is always welcome! *Robert Jongbloed* /OPAL/OpenH323/PTLib Architect and Co-founder./ Commercial support at http://www.voxlucida.com.au On 21/03/2014 9:13 PM, Alexander Sbitnev wrote: > I don't think you will be able to use camera UVC h.264 stream directly > from opal. > Even MJPEG support is not quite perfect in opal so I normally use > v4l2convert helper. > Probably gstreamer code will help you to import stream into opal as it is. > But I am not sure gstreamer support in any mature state or was it > dropped out by Robert already. > > On 03/20/2014 06:05 PM, Adrian Roman wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I'll be using opal with Logitech C920 cameras.
