Hi Gilad.x,
 I didn't make the package for Ubuntu 12.04 because the code was refactored to Java 1.7 and in 12.04 the default Java is 1.6.
Try to install oracle jre 1.7 and switch the default Java JVM to it.
Be also sure to have all avconv and gstreamer0.10 / 1.0 libs installed.
The dependences are:

  openjdk-7-jre,
  java-wrappers,
  libappframework-java,
  libcommons-cli-java,
  libcommons-codec-java,
  libcommons-httpclient-java,
  libcommons-lang3-java,
  libjsr305-java,
  liblog4j1.2-java,
  libnb-absolutelayout-java,
  libnetty-java,
  libslf4j-java,
  libswingworker-java,
  libav-tools | ffmpeg,
  libavformat-extra-53 | libavformat-extra-54,
  gstreamer-tools,
  gstreamer0.10-plugins-good,
  gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad,
  gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse,
  gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly,
  gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio,
  gstreamer0.10-gnonlin,
  gstreamer1.0-tools,
  gstreamer1.0-alsa,
  gksu,
  pavucontrol,
  pulseaudio-utils,
  zenity,
  wmctrl,

Sorry, i just see now the version you are using. The build 511 was Java 1.6 
compatible.
Maybe some missing dependence?

Hi Gilad,
 from build 511 to now many changes has been made, so can you please try downloading this more recent jar:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxkZ_wh6t7jbQWNJVnRQc2NaSTA/edit?usp=sharing

Unzip file, open a terminal, navigate too that directory and type:

java -jar WebcamStudio.jar

If you have all dependencies correctly installed WS should runs.
In this jar there must be more debugging infos.
Thanks for the feedback.
karl.

Karl Thanks 

I had the same error with the new version so

I reinstalled ubuntu studio I installed (fresh) oracle jre 1.7 and all 
dependencies 

and it works on ubuntu studio 12.04 WS 0.65 build 542 

I guess it was some configuration problem that I wasn't able to find in the 
last installed OS

The new build have a very nice new features. 

I hope that you have future plans for making Timeline editor and add the 
capability to send each source to a different output (I/O patchbay could be 
cool too)

It can open a lot of new options for VJ's to edit multi projection live shows 
and multi layer projection mapping. 

Jack support could be very handy too

Thank you for your great work 

Gilad

Hi Gilad,
 i'm happy to ear that it works :)
Currently the 542 version has some bugs but, as i commit the new build, it will 
be available to download.
Thanks for the interesting suggestions, i will surely try to take a look. :)
This is the GDrive where I store all compiled dists:
