Old problem? 'Failed to set UVC probe control'
Posted: Thu Mar 14, 2019 10:45 pm
I've been trying to get a Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Orbit/Sphere AF working with ZM 1.32 (Ubuntu server 18.04) but keep seeing a problem.
Looking around on the net, a lot, finds me a lot of old posts about problems relating to this error but nothing I've read has worked.
A suggestion I read was to install libv4l-0 and add this line in /usr/bin/zmdc.pl
$ENV{LD_PRELOAD} = '/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so';
The closest I've gotten to getting it to work is by using
$ sudo rmmod uvcvideo
$ sudo modprobe uvcvideo
Which seems to allow the camera (it's LED at least) to turn on for a few moments rather than a few seconds.
At this point, I don't know what is factual or not so need to post in the forums because some of the things I'm trying seem to be from old posts so it's hard to know what has been updated or not.
Some things I see in dmesg;
