Hi,

Anyone with a webcam with a ov511 chipset?
I wrote a utility for configuring such a device but currently don't have one. So I was hoping someone could give it a try for me, to see if it works.
It can be downloaded from:
http://www.vanheusden.com/setov511/
The output of:
setov511 -p
would already be very helpfull.

Please send your findings to zm@vanheusden.com as I'm not on this list.


Thank you.

Hi Folkert,

I have an OV511 cam and have downloaded your app. The output from setov511 -p gives me the following,

> ./setov511 -d /dev/video0 -p

Reading from device /dev/video0:
Error while doing ioctl OV511IOC_GUINT: Invalid argument
Light frequency: 3
Error while doing ioctl OV511IOC_GUINT: Invalid argument
Band filter: 3
Error while doing ioctl OV511IOC_GUINT: Invalid argument
Led policy: unknown: 3

Driver debug: 3

Compression: 3

I also tried adding the -v option as -h suggests it might be verbose but ut complains it's an invalid option.

I haven't tried any of the other options as I'm not sure what they are supposed to do.
