Hello all,
I was wondering if you could lend me a hand or offer some suggestion on
a strange matter I'm confronting with.
I have taken a PS3 Eye Webcam from my PS3 and placed it into my USB port
on the home computer.
So far so good, I also compiled the video driver made for it but this is
not the subject of this problem.
Whenever I try running for example alsactl store I get:
# alsactl store
alsactl: get_control:262: Cannot read control '2,0,0,Mic Capture
Volume,0': Invalid argument
the webcam is seen as:
cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [Audigy ]: Audigy - Audigy 1 [SB0090]
Audigy 1 [SB0090] (rev.3, serial:0x531102) at
0xb880, irq 23
1 [CameraB304061 ]: USB-Audio - USB Camera-B3.04.06.1
OmniVision Technologies, Inc. USB
Camera-B3.04.06.1 at usb-0000:00:1d.7-5.1, hi
also:
#dpkg -l | grep alsa
ii alsa-base
1.0.17.dfsg-2ubuntu1 ALSA driver configuration files
ii alsa-utils 1.0.17-0ubuntu3
ii gstreamer0.10-alsa
0.10.21-3ubuntu0.1 GStreamer plugin for ALSA
Running system is an Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.27-14-server.
I did some digging and asked around and on the ps3 driver forum (the one
for the video) the guys stated that the microphone worked very well by
default without their intervention or any special driver adding.
So I guess alsa picked it up and it was ok from the start. What I don't
know is what kernel version they were using and what alsa version, what
compile flags, etc.
Can you help me solve this issue if anyone ever ran into something similar ?
I'm really stuck with it and no idea what to do next.
Thanks,
Mihai
