Cannot create FrameGrabber from device path #429

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
I do FrameGrabber.createDefault("/dev/graphics/fb0"), set frame 
width/height/rate, and then do grabber.start().

I get this error:
02-11 12:25:41.692  W/System.err﹕ 
com.googlecode.javacv.FrameGrabber$Exception: cvCreateFileCapture() Error: 
Could not create camera capture.

Did you try to setFormat("rawvideo") ?

Yes. Same problem.

It looks like we need to set the pixel format as well for this to work. I've 
made changes to `FFmpegFrameGrabber` that should allow us to use 
`setPixelFormat()` for that purpose:

So, with this new code, in addition to `setFormat("rawvideo")`, please try to 
call `setPixelFormat(AV_PIX_FMT_RGB32)` as well before `start()`, and please 
try other pixel formats if RGB32 doesn't work on your device, thanks.

That change has been included in the latest release of JavaCV 0.8. There are a 
lot of other changes with this release, so please make sure to read the news

Thanks for testing this out for me!
