I've stopped trying to make this work now, even when it did work it could only sustain 320x240 due to RPI USB issues - I'm going for an off the shelf video server solution... if you go back a few steps and repeat the 'make modules install' I think that will put your old em28xx module back in for you. <br /> Cappertilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17271610692920682434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8484073583968745836.post-44704370649984953902012-12-08T08:31:32.185-08:002012-12-08T08:31:32.185-08:00Hi,

These notes are the product of much time spend on google piecing together information.<br /><br />This guide doesn't even work for the Raspberry Pi at present. I have managed to get some pictures working with the latest patch (see link above) on the Beaglebone, so I will try that on the Raspberry Pi at some point.

I can say for sure that cx231xx doesn't work for me on Raspberry or Beaglebone. It is also surprising how many of the £30-£40 capture cards have em28xx chips in them when you start looking for alternatives.<br /><br />I wonder if the answer might come from a usb tv dongle with video input. I am open to suggestions!<br /><br />That said - I HAVE managed to get images out of em28xx on the raspberry pi using the method above... but, as you may have seen in later posts, I haven't succeeded in doing so on the beaglebone yet. I do not think the limitation in image size is a product of the em28xx driver, moreover it seems to be something to do with the USB port.Cappertilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17271610692920682434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8484073583968745836.post-44844947899979255082012-07-26T07:00:36.351-07:002012-07-26T07:00:36.351-07:00Doesn't look like the em28xx will become avail...Doesn't look like the em28xx will become available on ARM:<br />http://www.digipedia.pl/usenet/thread/18550/32899/#post32898Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8484073583968745836.post-76209312752585036472012-07-23T13:44:36.461-07:002012-07-23T13:44:36.461-07:00Thanks michael, I was afraid that was the case. . ...Thanks michael, I was afraid that was the case. . . .
