Logitech C922 Webcam

[shreyank amartya]

Hi,

I'm trying to use my Logitech C922 webcam with FreeBSD 11.2 installed on my
system. I've installed webcamd and it is able to create /dev/video0.
However, when I try viewing the video through pwcview or cheese, I get a
scattered feed at 800x600 resolution and the following error if I try a
higher resolution:

>From pwcview

root at amd-sham:~ # pwcview -s xga -f 30
Webcam set to: 960x720 (xga) at 30 fps
libv4l2: error got 4 consecutive frame decode errors, last error:
v4l-convert: libjpeg error: End Of Image
Error reading from webcam: Input/output error

>From cheese:

root at amd-sham:~ # cheese

(cheese:1969): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme parsing error: cheese.css:7:35: The
style property GtkScrollbar:min-slider-length is deprecated and shouldn't
be used anymore. It will be removed in a future version

The cheese window pops up with the message " There was an error playing
video from the webcam".

I tried a 12.0 current kernel but I get the same issue.
webcamd version - 4.12.01

How can this be solved? Is there a way I can debug this problem? Or is
there a workaround?

Thanks
