We haven’t been able to get the tegra build to work with our lifecam on our jetson tx1. Whenever we ask for input from the camera, we get an error along the lines of “Codec not supported.”
We downloaded the opencv source, compiled it, and everything worked.
However, I’m worried that our vision code won’t be fast enough without the optimizations included in the tegra build.
Has anyone gotten the microsoft lifecam to work with opencv tegra and the jetson tx1?
Can you post the lines of code you are using to call up the camera?
Have you removed the onboard camera board? It sometimes can cause problems when using USB webcams.
We haven’t used the Lifecam but we’ve used the Logitech C920 and are happy with it.
Hmmmm. Pretty sure that we only unplugged the onboard camera after we gave up on the tegra build.
Lemme reinstall the tegra build and try it out.
Do you happen to know how to check if tegra or vanilla opencv is in use? Because I believe both are installed.
Refer to our guide here and install using JetPack:
