Switch to use libuvc upstream by default #34

Open kekiefer opened 4 years ago

kekiefer commented 4 years ago

The switch to upstream libuvc instead of the old groupgets fork solves a lot of problems. I'd like to merge these changes into master to do this by default, but would appreciate input from anyone using this repository.

Hey KeKiefer, is this still interesting? I'm using this repo and have also extended it (but had not the time right now to do a merge request). If this is still of interest I could have a look on it and test it. Let me know.

Edit: Maybe one more point, is this linux only? Because right now I'm working under windows.

I totally forgot that I never merged this. I would definitely appreciate more eyes on this.

It should be applicable to any platform, to some extent (we wouldn't be loading the right shared library with the python code, but that could be remedied). I would imagine it should work better with Windows as upstream libuvc is far ahead of our stale fork. I'd be curious to hear about your experiences on this platform.
