Closed mgineer85 closed 1 year ago

Your system What version of Python are you using?

Actions Runner

What version of libgphoto2 have you installed?

2.5.30

Your problem

Hi, is the virtual camera testing supposed to work actually? I try to use it in my actions and see that it seems not to work in yours also: https://github.com/jim-easterbrook/python-gphoto2/actions/runs/5973932068/job/16207362107 Tests are skipped.

One reason could be because compared greater instead of greater or equal? https://github.com/jim-easterbrook/python-gphoto2/blob/main/tests/vcamera.py#L43

Even if I change that and provide a path with images it does not detect a camera in my tests: https://github.com/mgrl/photobooth-app/actions/runs/5986350130/job/16239387306#step:8:779

You have an idea why this is happening or is it still experimental?

I can't get the virtual camera working in libgphoto2 v2.5.30, I think because of this bug: https://github.com/gphoto/libgphoto2/issues/842

It works with libgphoto2 from GitHub, so I assume will work with the next release of libgphoto2.

Hm, okay, thanks! Will keep watching this issue.

I've just released v2.5.0 which includes libgphoto2 v2.5.31 in its "binary wheels".

Awesome, works! Thank you very much!
