my usb-camera and skype. libv4l2: error turning on stream

veranyon · 2009-07-08 15:59:46

I know that skype has a proprietary product, or simply put "skype is not necessary."
But how to communicate with people who have little understanding of computers and with whom I can speak only once. There is a need to communicate, but the man uses that skype.

Sometimes need to work the camera, but it does not work under this program. - This is a deadlock? I don't know.

Earlier I used opensuse and did not know trouble with my camera under skype, but here ... and I do not know what to do.
I read wiki for installing skype - not something. http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Skype

and:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype
Starting the process...
Skype Xv: Xv ports available: 64
Skype XShm: XShm support enabled
Skype Xv: Using Xv port 355
libv4l2: error turning on stream: Ошибка ввода/вывода
Skype V4L2: Failed to activate streaming

or
dmesg:

Under "cheese" camera is visible perfectly. everything in sight.
I am using 32 bit ArchLinux. Not 64

tried to go to google your question - nothing.

My camera is Panasonic gs-33. It has usb mode.

What am I doing wrong?
Most requested help to resolve the problem.

Privet!
I had the same problem getting skype to work...

Solution: edit/create /home/youruser/.profile
and add your driver in there, mine looks like this:

#!/bin/sh

export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so

save/reboot and it should work.

And this is not the same thing?

"LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype"
?

But I did it as you said.

1. $ cat ~/.profile

#!/bin/sh

export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so

2. relogin
3. $ skype
Starting the process...
Skype Xv: Xv ports available: 64
Skype XShm: XShm support enabled
Skype Xv: Using Xv port 355
libv4l2: error turning on stream: Ошибка ввода/вывода (input/output Error)

dmesg

I think you should look into the wiki to see if we miss some of your details. Specially I suspect that you're using an Arch64

I can put that one to /etc/profile
and make
/etc/rc.d/gdm restart

or

# cat /etc/profile | grep LD_
LD_PRELOAD="/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so"
export $LD_PRELOAD

and init1 ... init3 ... /etc/rc.d/gdm start

there's same result

It specifies about loading "/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so"/"/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so" befire running skype.

no more

Which version of skype did you install? pacman -Qs skype

veranyon · 2009-07-08 18:34:54

pacman -Qs skype
local/skype-staticqt 2.0.0.72-2
P2P software for high-quality voice communication (static Qt)

I installed and non static version. (before it)

1. pacman -Sy skype
rinning skype with the same result
2. pacman -R skype
3. yaourt -Sy skype-staticqt

Is your an Arch64?
Skype compiles as 32bit only
