[SOLVED] Logitech Quickcam EC

[rajeev1204]

Hi.

I have a quickcam go which is detected as quickcam ec in skype etc. with lsusb giving bus id 045 92f.

In windows,its decent quality but in linux its horrible with a yellow washout look under any light conditions.


Can anyone help?

Most likely isn't Linux supported......

Try using Ekiga see if the cam works/detected. You may have to work with the settings > Open Ekiga > Edit > Preferences > Devices > Video Devices > try changing some of the settings. (try both V4L and V4L2)

To test your webcam you can do this:
There are 6 icons on the left side of the main Ekiga window. Push the 4th button from the top (a grey round webcam). If eveything is ok, you'll see the output of the webcam. If not, you'll see the Ekiga logo bouncing slowly.

If Ekiga doesn't work post results of the command > lsusb

My Z star Micro works great with Ekiga but not with aMSN any clues to that???

Sony's Z star built in cam, does not have a V4L or V4L2 driver but vcr00 driver which won't fumnction with aMSN........

OK i installed xawtv and adjusted cam exposure and now it looks good.

Same results in skype too.Seems like xawtv affects settings system wide.
