Re: Cheese on VirtualBox "no device found"

[Luiz Vitor Martinez Cardoso <grabber gmail com>]

Dear Heidi,

I have a wide experience on the development using cameras. 

I tried several times to do it using virtualized environments, but currently I don't know any kind of virtualization technology that support a decent USB throughput to video formats nearest 720p.

Best regards,

Luiz Vitor.

Hi Heidi,

can you please test if it's works with guvcview or luvcview? Or with
gst-launch-0.10 -v v4l2src ! video/x-raw-yuv, width=640, height=480 !
autovideosink

The reason can be driver, in your case it is uvcvideo. But so far i know
this cam works perfect under linux. So, it can be long delay, caused by
virtualbox (do virtualbox actually support USB2.0?) Or packets are
malformed..? Any other ideas?

Try VMware instead of virtual box.
