I'm sorry, but where do I type the ./install? Thanks for the help.

You download the driver, extract it, open a terminal inside the directory to which you have extracted the driver, and execute the script install.sh that you can find among the file you have extracted by typing

./install.sh

into the terminal.

It is not a command or anything, it is the instruction to execute the script install.sh, meaning that you have to navigate to the correct directory first (using cd, for instance).

You may want to read up on some of the basics before you venture into this kind of things which will probably not break your system, but may leave you in serious disarray.

@ Hulkie : is that kind of image you describe as blueish? How long did you wait before making the snapshot? Due to the big image size, secons seconds may be unsufficient for the webcam to do its whitebalance.

Hey, I tried the for_hulkie_ok and now the tilting is gone for the larger resolutions and camorama, so that is ok now. However, the sync is gone for all resolutions as you saw in the movie. But, the images do have the correct resolution and are not tilted anymore. The colors they flicker all the time but I have the impression (or I would like to believe.. ) that the color only changes when the images start moving. This would make sense I believe as the 'red' intensities are interpreted as 'green' intensities after a pixel shift, giving completely different colours... Therefore, I would say that we only need to fix the sync issue to obtain correct images!

Concerning the blueish images, that was a while back when I sometimes obtained a stable image and in that case, my ear remained blue for let's say 10-20 seconds..

In rgb24-mode I obtain a movie as shown in attachment with mencoder. I have a red t-shirt on and a white sheet of paper in my hand. For larger frequencies the image 'translation' and frequency is slower..

Anyway, hope this helps and I'll get back in a week.
Hulkie.

You're right about the color issue, it is due to the shifts. I will adapt these logs to make a "c" and "a" version, I will also add delays where the wWindows driver makes it.
Have a good holiday (I suppose), bonnes vacances.

There is a version 0.2n7c online. It has a byte sent to the webcam which is different. Is there a difference between n7b and n7c?

[blazercist]

Hey nol, 0.2n7c works really good, great color and 30fps steady in 800x600, the image is upside down in 1600x1200 and weird colors but its not slanted and the vertical/horizontal sync is good.

@ Blazercist : Could you post screenshot with the weird colors ?

@ all : there is a lack of data in the Windows logs used to make the driver.
I tried to correct this with the lastest Hulkie's logs, please try the n7d online.

Well Nol, I made a little mistake only 800x600 is nice and pretty and all the rest look like the pictures I'm uploading, 640x480 is sometimes with the right colors and orientation but still with the garble at bottom.

1600x1200 640x480

Online there is a n7e which is a theoretical adaptation from "b" version to "a" and "c".
I hope it is better than the n7c.

Soro2005 : can you run WMWARE and make logs with the "monusb" script ? Hulkie logs only applied to him and fret_saw. There is maybe missing stuff in the logs for "a" version.
