I can't even see the remote video of a caller: the opposite part cannot start video when talking to me. Hope, this will make it a bit more clear. I presume, that the problem is not in the camera, but somewhere in Skype video transmission. Thank you one more time for trying to figure it out, I do appreciate it.On 15 Oct, 2013,at 06:24 PM, Artyom Mirgorodskiy <artyom.mirgorodsky at gmail.com> wrote:So you should have /compat/linux/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so from linux-f10-libv4l port Artyom MirgorodskiyOn Tuesday 15 October 2013 17:21:34 wrote:/compat/linux/bin/shsh-3.2$ ls /usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.soYou should check file in linux compat enviroments!On Tuesday 15 October 2013 14:11:11 Chatzki wrote:> # uname -aFreeBSD hostname 9.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE #1 r256021M: Wed Oct 9 21:34:31 MSK 2013 root at hostname:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/FRYASHA amd64# ls /usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.sols: /usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so: No such file or directoryThe same directory structure I have on i386/9.0. The trick is that I can test camera in Skype and it works, but can't make it work during calls.
