Subject: SPCA1527A/SPCA1528 (micro)SD camera in webcam mode
Date: Sat, 29 May 2010 19:09:32 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201005291909.33593.linux@rainbow-software.org> (raw)

Hello,
I got a MD80-clone camera based on SPCA1527A chip. It's webcam-like camera 
with battery and microSD slot and can record video on its own. It has two USB 
modes - mass storage (USB ID 04fc:0171) and webcam mode (USB ID 04fc:1528). 
This chip seems to be used in many other SD card cameras too.

The webcam mode is not supported by gspca so I captured some data to 
(hopefully) make support in gspca possible. There seems to be 3 interfaces:

>From Windows driver:
interface 0: SPCA1528 Video Interrupt Device (no driver used)
interface 1: SPCA1528 Video Camera Device (ca1528av.sys, dext1528.ax, 
sp5x_32.dll)
interface 2: SPCA1528 Still Camera Device (bulk1528.sys)

The camera does not seem to support audio in webcam mode.

Interface 0 seems to be useless and there's no application to test interface 2 
(still camera) so the only interesting interface seems to be interface 1.


Some SniffUSB logs are here:

usbsnoop-composite.log - composite device plug&unplug

usbsnoop-still.log - interface 2 plug&unplug

usbsnoop-video-capture-320x240.log - interface 1 plug, capture of about 1 
second video at 320x240, unplug
