What Java code is required to run a USB camera?

[Cobra Commander]

We have a Logitech c270 web cam, the WebViewer does detect the camera but I can not find sample code of what needs to accompany our new camera. (Java by the way)

I already I saw this post I put it in our code but it still didn't work.

This is the initialization code copied exactly from our robot. I did verify that it is called "cam0".

public void robotInit() {
CameraServer server = CameraServer.getInstance();
server.setQuality(50);
server.startAutomaticCapture("cam0");
}

What do you mean by "the WebViewer does detect the camera"? Do you mean SmartDashboard? Is there a specific error? Pictures are always helpful.

No I don't mean SmartDashboard.

I have no errors because it does not appear.
The roboRIO is detecting it I know this by looking at the 172.22.11.2 page.

I am assuming your question is how to view the camera feed. The Webdashboard only shows connected devices. How we saw the actual feed was by opening SmartDashboard and clicking View->Add->USB Camera (Something like that).

The WebDashboard was just proof that it was being detected we are trying to view it from the Driver Station. What "View" tab are you talking about?

This is the SmartDashboard. (http://wpilib.screenstepslive.com/s/4485/m/26401/l/255407-getting-started-with-the-smartdashboard) I have attached a photo of how to add the USB Webcam Viewer.

How are you trying to access the camera feed? You will need to open the smart dashboard and add a USB camera viewer widget, or open the LabVIEW dashboard and switch the camera type to USB.

We didn't do what you said, but it's working now. Not sure what happened. Thanks for your help though!
