They simply say to use Youcam 6, that's it, that's all they know.
Well this right there should be the end of the review, useless $3K of hardware because support is clueless. Maybe tweet them into shame?
I tried ffmpeg and it shows the device has a format of yuyv422 1920x1080 @ 59.9402fps
When trying to record using the example command:
ffmpeg -f dshow -i video="Integrated Camera" out.mp4
It says dshow is not a valid format.
arghh Dave, full output?
That is probably bad syntax. Does this thing really enumerate as 'Integrated Camera'?
I am using the correct ID identifier as returned by ffmpeg, which also works with other commands.
Right. I'd still like to see the full output so I have a better idea of what I'm looking at.
It is amazingly hard to troubleshoot things otherwise, especially when the last time you used the tool was four years ago on a more consistent platform.
this!! Dave is terrible at helping him troubleshoot because he knows a little about computers
There are 3 types of people when you try to help someone with technical problem
1 complete boobs, they will tell you about cup holder not reading DVDs, ask where any key is, but they will also do everything you ask them to including opening remote desktop session.
3 BOFHs, they might annoy you, but they know whats wrong on their end and usually only ask really tough questions that lead to a fix
2 people in the middle, they will tell you 'they already did that', or 'no way this is going to work so im not gonna bother'
Dave is 2
Dave, copy pasta is your friend, you made a typo.
>This is not a bug. Placement of options is important. Anything before an "-i" is considered an input option, so ffmpeg is attempting to
>apply "-vcodec copy -acodec copy -scodec xsub" to the decoder of your input which is why you get the message, "Unknown decoder
>'copy'". Move appropriate options before your output if you want them applied to the output.
yuyv422 1920x1080 @ 59.9402fps is ~250MB/s
But for starters you dont need to capture 60Hz, its not like YT supports it, so you can capture 30Hz. even laptop will have no trouble encoding that on the fly.
Is yuyv422 the only output available?
