My entire point of buying this particular webcam/mic combo was the fact that it is advertised as being specifically compatible with Mac, and it emphasizes on the Logitech box that "No drivers are required." Heck, it's unusable with “Photo Booth,” unless you are not wearing a light colored shirt!īTW, the same thing is true with Logitech's top-of-the-line ($99.99) headset/mic wireless combo, the "Logitech ClearChat Wireless." I also purchased this wireless (USB base station) Logitech headset/mic the same day I bought the webcam. It also comes up as an "unrecognizable USB device" (just like it does in “Photo Booth”), as opposed to a "Logitech QuickCam Vision Pro." Therefore, it has very, very limited functionality with the Mac. Various other incompatibility issues also arise when you use the Logitech Vision Pro webcam with Skype, or other webcam services. I wish there was some way I could manually load the necessary drivers!

And, you can’t bring up any associated screens, like manual overrides, and the like, because once again, I assume the drivers are just not there (thus, it comes up as an “unknown USB device).

I assume this is because when you install this Logitech (supposedly Mac compatible) webcam on your Mac, it comes sup as an "unrecognizable USB device." Thus, none of its automatic features appear to work. It appears that the Logitech "Right Light 2" feature is NOT working with the Mac. For instance, when you take a shot of yourself in Photo Booth, it is horribly, horribly over-exposed if you are wearing a white shirt, and the image is therefore entirely unusable. While you can see your self-image just fine in Photo Booth and you can take nice video clips, this is where it ends.

I am running the current/latest version of Mac OS X, Version 10.5.5, 2 x 2.66 GHz Dual Core Intel Xeon, 8 GB DRAM. Unfortunately, this webcam with mic device has HUGE compatibility problems right now with the Mac Pro. It is quite pricey at $129, because it is supposedly so "good," with features such as "Right Light 2," and its excellent optics. I am going to do some googling of the ERROR listed here.I just purchased the MAC compatible “Logitech QuickCam Vision Pro” webcam.

Hope it saves someone else the fruitless few hours I spent trying to figure out why my images looked so bad.Ĭode: Select all usb 1-1.3.3: new high speed USB device number 7 using dwc_otg Since I'm running headless, I use v4l2-ctl to modify the webcam controls before starting the stream. All that is needed to correct the image is to tweak those. In the end it turns out that with my Logitech Quickcam 9000, none of the brightness/contrast/saturation controls are initialised to sensible defaults. I couldn't find anything which looked wrong in the code. I initially thought that something was up with using the V4L2 header with the code, and spent a couple of evenings familiarising myself with the differences between the APIs. You could see the general shape of things in there, but it was unusable. I was severely disappointed with the pictures from the webcam - they were mostly black with bits of red or green dashed about. Luckily it seems that V4L2 is already supported with this software. It does however have videodev2.h, so I tried just making a soft link and the software compiled. The software did not compile immediately, since my distribution does not have the videodev.h include. Quick googling suggested mjpeg-streamer would be the thing I needed.
Not having used a webcam with Linux before, I didn't have any idea what kind of command line tools were available to run it - I wanted to capture the stream and send it over the LAN to a browser on another machine so the Pi can run headless. I thought this might be a useful tale for anyone trying to get a webcam to work with their Pi.
