• Streaming Webcam from Windows 10 to Ubuntu 18.04 via WSL2 and usbip [closed]

  15 juin 2021, par Jacob Dallas

  Background
  
Alright so I was able to set up my Windows 10 desktop with WSL2 in order to run Ubuntu 18.04. I'm trying to get the webcam to be accessible and have picked and pieced together the following tutorials in order to get myself to where I am.

  The Why
  
"Why would you go through this painstaking effort ? Seems dumb." you might be telling yourself. Well I think that it's dumb that WSL2 doesn't have a USB pass-through, so there's that. But I develop on Windows traditionally, and with a recent computer vision project I'm undertaking that incorporates the Nvidia Isaac SDK (only available on Ubuntu 18.04) I was hoping to continue to use Windows to develop, and then Ubuntu 18.04 to test. I'm trying to stay away from dual booting because switching back and forth between OSs is time-consuming.

  


  Current State
  
What I'm able to do is pass through the web camera using usbip from windows using the following commands
  
.\usbip.exe bind -b 1-189
  
.\usbipd.exe -d -4
  

  


  and then on the linux side I connect it by running
  
sudo usbip attach --remote=172.30.64.1 --busid=1-220
  
except that I put in my own remote address and busid

  


  What that results in is the ability to see that the camera is attached and seen by linux, but no matter what program/library I use, none of them are able to open the webcam

  


  Here are some outputs from different commands people have used to display camera information :

  I'm not sure if I don't have a specific library, driver, random other thing, but everything I've tried so far seems to not solve the problem.

  
Question
  
Linux sees the web camera, knows that it is a web camera, but is not processing the camera feed. What would you recommend I do to be able to process the video feed ? I think this is an issue with my settings when I originally set up linux with menuconfig.
Any help would be appreciated :)

  bin/ffmpeg -loglevel quiet -re -f v4l2 -i /dev/video0 -tune zerolatency -preset ultrafast -pix_fmt yuv420p out.mkv


  


  put the framerate starts at around 20 and increases slowly to 36. Also when reviewing the output videos i feel like i see a bit of a framedrop so the video is not as smooth as the input.

  


  Is this due to a lack of power of the raspberry or are there any tweaks i could use to improve performance ? I don't care about the output format, framerate or resolution

  


  thank you very much

  


• Nexus One

  19 mars 2010, par Mans — Uncategorized

  I have had a Nexus One for about a week (thanks Google), and naturally I have an opinion or two about it.
  

  Hardware

  With the front side dominated by a touch-screen and a lone, round button, the Nexus One appearance is similar to that of most contemporary smartphones. The reverse sports a 5 megapixel camera with LED flash, a Google logo, and a smaller HTC logo. Power button, volume control, and headphone and micro-USB sockets are found along the edges. It is with appreciation I note the lack of a front-facing camera ; the silly idea of video calls is finally put to rest.

  Powering up the phone (I’m beginning to question the applicability of that word), I am immediately enamoured with the display. At 800×480 pixels, the AMOLED display is crystal-clear and easily viewable even in bright light. In a darker environment, the display automatically dims. The display does have one quirk in that the subpixel pattern doesn’t actually have a full RGB triplet for each pixel. The close-up photo below shows the pattern seen when displaying a solid white colour.

  

  The result of this is that fine vertical lines, particularly red or blue ones, look a bit jagged. Most of the time this is not much of a problem, and I find it an acceptable compromise for the higher effective resolution it provides.

  Basic interaction

  The Android system is by now familiar, and the Nexus offers no surprises in basic usage. All the usual applications come pre-installed : browser, email, calendar, contacts, maps, and even voice calls. Many of the applications integrate with a Google account, which is nice. Calendar entries, map placemarks, etc. are automatically shared between desktop and mobile. Gone is the need for the bug-ridden custom synchronisation software with which mobile phones of the past were plagued.

  Launching applications is mostly speedy, and recently used apps are kept loaded as long as memory needs allow. Although this garbage-collection-style of application management, where you are never quite sure whether an app is still running, takes a few moments of acclimatisation, it works reasonably well in day to day use. Most of the applications are well-behaved and save their data before terminating.

  Email

  Two email applications are included out of the box : one generic and one Gmail-only. As I do not use Gmail, I cannot comment on this application. The generic email client supports IMAP, but is rather limited in functionality. Fortunately, a much-enhanced version, K-9, is available for download. The main feature I find lacking here is threaded message view.

  The features, or lack thereof, in the email applications is not, however, of huge importance, as composing email, or any longer piece of text, is something one rather avoids on a system like this. The on-screen keyboard, while falling among the better of its kind, is still slow to use. Lack of tactile feedback means accidentally tapping the wrong key is easily done, and entering numbers or punctuation is an outright chore.

  Browser

  Whatever the Nexus lacks in email abilities, it makes up for with the browser. Surfing the web on a phone has never been this pleasant. Page rendering is quick, and zooming is fast and simple. Even pages not designed for mobile viewing are easy to read with smart reformatting almost entirely eliminating the sideways scrolling which hampered many a mobile browser of old.

  Calls and messaging

  Being a phone, the Nexus One is obviously able to make and receive calls, and it does so with ease. Entering a number or locating a stored contact are both straight-forward operations. During a call, audio is clear and of adequate loudness, although I have yet to use the phone in really noisy surroundings.

  The other traditional task of a mobile phone, messaging, is also well-supported. There isn’t really much to say about this.

  Multimedia

  Having a bit of an interest in most things multimedia, I obviously tested the capabilities of the Nexus by throwing some assorted samples at it, revealing ample space for improvement. With video limited to H.264 and MPEG4, and the only supported audio codecs being AAC, MP3, Vorbis, and AMR, there are many files which will not play.

  To make matters worse, only selected combinations of audio and video will play together. Several video files I tested played without sound, yet when presented with the very same audio data alone, it was correctly decoded. As for container formats, it appears restricted to MP4/MOV, and Ogg (for Vorbis). AVI files are recognised as media files, but I was unable to find an AVI file which would play.

  With a device clearly capable of so much more, the poor multimedia support is nothing short of embarrassing.

  The Market

  Much of the hype surrounding Android revolves around the Market, Google’s virtual marketplace for app authors to sell or give away their creations. The thousands of available applications are broadly categorised, and a search function is available.

  The categorised lists are divided into free and paid sections, while search results, disappointingly, are not. To aid the decision, ratings and comments are displayed alongside the summary and screenshots of each application. Overall, the process of finding and installing an application is mostly painless. While it could certainly be improved, it could also have been much worse.

  The applications themselves are, as hinted above, beyond numerous. Sadly, quality does not quite match up to quantity. The vast majority of the apps are pointless, though occasionally mildly amusing, gimmicks of no practical value. The really good ones, and they do exist, are very hard to find unless one knows precisely what to look for.

  Battery

  Packing great performance into a pocket-size device comes with a price in battery life. The battery in the Nexus lasts considerably shorter time than that in my older, less feature-packed Nokia phone. To some extent this is probably a result of me actually using it a lot more, yet the end result is the same : more frequent recharging. I should probably get used to the idea of recharging the phone every other night.

  Verdict

  The Nexus One is a capable hardware platform running an OS with plenty of potential. The applications are still somewhat lacking (or very hard to find), although the basic features work reasonably well. Hopefully future Android updates will see more and better core applications integrated, and I imagine that over time, I will find third-party apps to solve my problems in a way I like. I am not putting this phone on the shelf just yet.
