h.264 web cam

h.264 web cam

[Jerry Geis]

I am trying to find the code for h.264 mentioned
 http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg29129.html

I downloaded the linux-media-2011-05.24 and it is not part of uvc_driver.c

Where can I get the code?

Thanks,

Jerry

That code only exists in the patches you've found. They haven't been applied 
to the uvcvideo driver, because we haven't decided yet how H.264 should be 
exposed to applications by the V4L2 API.

We now have a better understanding of H.264. Hans, could you review the H.264 
patch at the link above and tell me what you now think about the new fourcc ?

Thanks I am trying to get an H.264 hardware encoded web cam from 
Facevsion E1 to work on linux.
Its far superior to the the other web cams I was using.

Where are you in the world?

I can always connect it to a machine here and give you access?

Let me know,

Yes, that's fine. It matches the proposals from Kamil Debski, so this can go ahead.
