Topic: uvcvideo package in SVN

The content of this topic has been archived on 25 Apr 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

Hi,

Ive been trying to compile Kamikaze with Target System 'Broadcom BCM947xx/953xx [2.6]'  with Target Profile 'No WiFi', Ive been trying to compile the kernel module uvcvideo thats listed under my buildroot in 'trunk/package/uvcvideo/'.

Ive tried my best to find this package listed in the 'make menuconfig' but I can only find uvc-streamer in the menu (which currently builds fine) but I have been unable to find that package listed in any part of the menuconfig :\

I have also tried to compile the uvcvideo package from the trunk directory with (now im not sure this is correct but...) 'make package/uvcvideo/ compile V=99'
the only output is:

pc-build@heimdall:~/build/openwrt-kami/trunk$ make package/uvcvideo/ compile V=99
make: `package/uvcvideo/' is up to date.
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/pc-build/build/openwrt-kami/trunk'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `compile'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/pc-build/build/openwrt-kami/trunk'
make: *** [compile] Error 2

nothing gets compiled and nothing extra is in the bin/package folders....

I've searched high and low and haven't been able to find much
Any ideas and thoughts would be great
Feel free to point out or poke fun at what I have done wrong wink

Thanks
Rip

Hi Rip,

can you try the following command?

make package/uvcvideo-compile V=99

There is no uvcvideo package in OpenWrt. Nobody ported and packaged Linux-UVC yet...

Feel free to port and package it and submit a patch...

Hi forum2006
The SVN has a package called uvcvideo and in the make file:

PKG_NAME:=linux-uvc
PKG_VERSION:=r111
PKG_RELEASE:=1

PKG_SOURCE:=$(PKG_NAME)-$(PKG_VERSION).tar.gz
PKG_SOURCE_URL:=http://naaa.de/programme/linux-uvc/
PKG_MD5SUM:=36c742d9dd1cf533fa059a1eeffa3e32


so I would of assumed that is the correct package unless i'm wrong.

hi tl71,

after I run 'make package/uvcvideo - compile V=99'

pc-build@heimdall:~/build/openwrt-kami/trunk$ make package/uvcvideo/ - compile V=99
make: `package/uvcvideo/' is up to date.
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/pc-build/build/openwrt-kami/trunk'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `compile'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/pc-build/build/openwrt-kami/trunk'
make: *** [compile] Error 2


Cheers

Ups. Right in /trunk but not in 7.07. I'm using 7.07.

Hello "Rip",

I just looked at the "PKG_SOURCE_URL:" linked in your post: http://naaa.de/

There are links to OpenWRT Kamikaze 7.07 packages on this page: http://naaa.de/uvc_streamer.htm


Hope this helps,

Hi,  Yeah ive downloaded and tried the ipkg, but it fails to pick up my uvc camera, that is the reason I was going to try and compile it myself, and if that fails I was going to hopefully try to compile the files from the SVN of UVC.


Cheers
Rip

The discussion might have continued from here.
