Fails to compile on MacOS

[teovoinea]

I'm using this crate as a dependant from oli-obk/camera_capture

I'm getting the following error:

error[E0425]: cannot find value `VIDIOC_STREAMON` in module `v4l2`

Using the latest rscam and camera_capture

Looking at the source, these only seem to be defined for linux and freebsd. So as far as I know this library won't work with MacOS. Look at this: https://users.rust-lang.org/t/are-there-any-video-capture-libraries-out-there/11241, and let me know if you manage to get anything running 😉 .

I've succesfully used libuvc-rs to capture a webcam stream @teovoinea. You may want to check it out.

Thanks @sebasgarcep! In the end, I've decided to use rust-objc to call an objective c library I wrote to access the webcam using the AVFoundation APIs. Hopefully it works out 😁

@teovoinea could this issue be closed? With #17, hopefully this makes it more clear in the future

@joelgallant #17 looks great, I'll close this out
