| 2 * How to use effecttv with vloopback ? | |
| 3 | |
| 4 You have to load your webcam / capture card kernel module , i.ex : | |
| 5 | |
| 6 modprobe pwc mbufs=3 size=vga fps=15 | |
| 7 | |
| 8 See dmesg output to know the video device used by your device : | |
| 9 | |
| 10 pwc: Registered as /dev/video0 | |
| 11 | |
| 12 Load vloopback device , | |
| 13 | |
| 14 modprobe vloopack | |
| 15 | |
| 16 see dmseg output ( same as above ) | |
| 17 | |
| 18 Loopback 0 registered, input: video1,output: video2 | |
| 19 | |
| 20 And run effect on this way : effectv -vloopback [input vloopback device] -device [real video device]: | |
| 21 | |
| 22 effectv effectv -vloopback /dev/video1 -device /dev/video0 | |

| 25 * I got "video_init: double buffer capturing with mmap is not supported. Video initialization failed." when i try to use my webcam with quickcam module. | |

| 28 | |
| 29 modprobe quickcam compatible=2 | |
| 30 | |
| 31 | |
| 32 * How can i use vloopback to use my firewire cam as a V4L device ? | |
| 33 | |
| 34 Load vloopback | |
| 35 | |

| 37 | |
| 38 You need to use Coriander (http://damien.douxchamps.net/ieee1394/coriander/ ) and set on services tab V4L (http://damien.douxchamps.net/ieee1394/coriander/win_v4l.png). | |
