Hi!
Using the Galago UltraPro's BisonCam, NB Pro, some applications show a green output instead of the webcam output.
Working applications :
- cheese
Non-working applications :
- Skype
- vlc v4l2:///dev/video0
- guvcview
Appending any of the following lines does not work :
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so PROGRAM_NAME
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l2convert.so PROGRAM_NAME
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so PROGRAM_NAME
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l2convert.so PROGRAM_NAME
Also tried the following (found in Ubuntu documentation), and it didn't help :
export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1
Please help me with this issue. I had Skype working with different (old) webcams using the LD_PRELOAD trick, but it does not seem to help here. Also, Google doesn't help, seems that the LD_PRELOAD trick works for everybody else...
Thanks!
