[linux-uvc-devel] Logitech B990 slow initialization, WebRTC problems

Hi,

I have a Logitech B990 webcam

ID 046d:0828 Logitech, Inc. HD Webcam B990


When I start guvcview, the webcam's blue lights flash for 5 - 7 seconds
and then a greenish picture appears.

If I go to the video tab in guvcview and change it from MJPG to YUYV or
H264 then the picture looks normal.

My WebRTC browser often tries to initialize the webcam but gives a
JavaScript error before it becomes ready. It doesn't appear to work
with cheese either.

I've attached the following details:


lsusb.log (from lsusb -v -d 046d:0828)

dmesg.out (uvcvideo traces)

guvcview.out (stdout/stderr from guvcview)


Is this a defect with the webcam or is it simply not supported? I
notice it is not in the list[1]. This was originally discussed on the
Jitsi Users list[2]

Regards,

Daniel
