Hello, I made a night vision webcam(without infrared filter, and with a infrared light). I want to put on N800 conecting with usb-host. I just compiled the module gspca.ko for os2008 and I think insmod load corectly the module, but I have several issues. Can anybody help to make this posible. In /dev/video I have video1 and video0, this means that load correctly but I don't know how to see webcam pictures because no software knowledge.
Also I think the usb have no power to turn up webcam. Webcam use 100mA and 5V, I pretend to put a powered hup.

If anyone can help to make gspca goes on N800-N810 was brilliant.

I write next changes at http://www.behindmaemolines.blogspot.com/

Here I put the module: ( I put a 7zip compresion into a zip (sorry))

Did you know the N800 camera is infra-red sensitive? Also if you want to block visible light then a piece of exposed negative film (typically on the end of film strips) makes a good filter.

Try using mplayer to view the stream.

I think mplayer fpr maemo is not compiled with that functionality...

Thanks, I want to conect a extra cam for put into a hat ore something like this and have the vision of the eyes. sorry for my english. with lsmod I can see the module loaded. I need a powered usb hup for power the cam. If anyone can prove. this drivers "GSPCA" support a lot of webcams.

try spca tools or xawtv

Does anyone know if the IR filter is on the lens itself, or in the plastic cover?

- i thought about this... i have an Intel QX3 usb microscope i'd like to try...

(it'd need cpia/bttv V4L, IIRC)

I have been searching for a way to auto load this module during boot, but i could not find the neccesary information. anyone can help me ?

I found the solution, if anybody else is interested ; thanks to RipTorn, his post is very useful
