[Bug 863351] Re: 046d:08d7 Logitech Webcam stops if there is no movement

 

Kiko Barcelli, thank you for your comments. Unfortunately, it is not my
call if you want a backport or not. Either you do, or you don't. If you
do, then that could be pursued. If you don't, it's considered closed as
Invalid, and who may or may not potentially have this exact issue has no
bearing on this.

Title:
  046d:08d7 Logitech Webcam stops if there is no movement

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a webcam Logitech Communicate STX, which connects via USB and has integrated USB microphone.
  The audio is working just fine.
  My problem is with the video, when I start an application like Cheese, gstreamer-properties, vlc or empathy the video starts, but shortly after it freezes.
  Initially I thought it froze completely, but it didn't, if I make some movement very close to the camera (ie. moving my hand swiftly in front of it) it will start sending video again, but as soon as I stop this fast movement, the camera will freeze again.

  See:

  I tested the kernel 3.4.0-999-generic-pae and the camera works.
