None of the programs included by default as of PR1.1 support the front camera.

shadowjk, you really should check for facts before posting.
Front camera works with Jabber/GTalk videochat, with the only exception that you can't initiate from the n900.

For the record, Mirror is just a GTK front-end for gstreamer, nothing more, nothing less. The only difference is that by default it specifies a slight gamma boost and fullscreen-crops the image.

Hi, the command works, nice.
Is it possible to make a shortcut to activate the frontcamera?

Added Font-Camera test picture into Healthcheck (Link in my signature) - now in extras testing...

I think in future versions i need to brighten it up - but just checks it and saves a test file

(Healthcheck installs g-streamer if you do not already have it)

I don't have the testing repo added to my app manager,
and that's not exactly what i'm looking for.
It was an idea to add an extra cam to my phonenext to the other shortcuts.
I'm carefull with the testing cause i'm new to linux and maemo

Sensible too

Maybe a request for a new app?

Sorry may, trying not to be picky but your sentence soes not make any sense?


i downloaded the command

from where i can find the command.
Well if you downloaded it, then why do you still need it?

The command is in this thread, and you run it from x-terminal.

Is there anything specific you are trying to do? - test the camera? video? quality? etc etc?
