update for wiki: home improvement ideas #31

Closed netchild closed 3 years ago

netchild commented 4 years ago

I have discussed the webcamd part with Hans Petter, he has integrated it into the webcamd source (extended to also cover the write part, not only the read part). Should be included in the next webcamd release. I'm in the process of discussion with him the linux_libusb part.

I assume sysutils/iichid is needed for the touchpads on the gamepads. Right? Could you give a little / short overview about how this fits together, e.g. example usage of webcamd, iichid and the SDL_JOYSTICK_DEVICE variable?

Cool. I wanted to test force feedback with the patch, but I never got that working in the first place. Hence the hesitation.

As far as gamepads are concerned, iichid is simply a BSD-licensed alternative to webcamd. Use one of those to create a /dev/input/event[number] node for gamepad, set SDL_JOYSTICK_DEVICE to that path.
