jphoto-interest Mailing List for Java USB Camera Tools

Hello,

It makes many days I'm trying JPhoto, but I doesn't
work at all for me... 
I'm using jusb 0.4.3, and the latest version of
JPhoto.

I tried to open it via Eclipse as normal user and as
root, but the result is the same : 

I/O exception: USB Host support is unavailable.

So, after doing some search on Google, i found that
the module usb device filesystem had to be compiled. I
checked, but it is already compiled.
They were telling about a usbdevfs filesystem. Mine is
usbfs. Is it different ? 

I'm working on Gentoo distribution.

It would help me a lot if you could help me, I'm using
this project for a student work. Thanks a lot !

Hi, where can I find some example code using jphoto in a java program?
I'am writting a program to control a Sony DSC, but I don't now what =
classes to instantiate, what methods to use, etc...
Thanks

Ah, thanks.  Sounds like it won't work, then.  I need to get at least a=20
frame every two seconds or so, minimum, and just taking separate photos=20
wouldn't work that fast and would also cause the camera to be flashing all=

different environment one could use floodlamps and get rid of the need for=

a flash, but that won't work well here.

Thanks for the information,

Shawn's comment was not off-topic, in fact he was asking about
one of the first applications done with jPhoto, but ...

jPhoto has supported capture and download from the very earliest days.
There was a very interesting early application using it for aerial
mapping, with a pair of DC-4800 cameras.

But remember it's not a video camera API, so you're not going to
be able to stream.  There's a delay to capture and write to flash
memory (CF card), and a delay to download the image.  Also eventually
a delay to erase the image from that memory (or the whole card).

So you'd need to write code to automate that process, but not
code to do anything else.

Is the PTP spec not available on-line any more, zero cost?
I've still got a copy of the original, if you like I can send it.

Hi Shawn,

I've successfully made time-lapse movies with literally hundreds of
images using PTP cameras (Kodak DC-3400 & DC-4800) and gphoto2 on
Linux.  I wrote simple PERL scripts that called gphoto2 to take the
images, download, delete, and repeat at specific time intervals.  I'll
be happy to share those PERL scripts if you want.

I was not able use image streams "continuously" as you describe above on
my cameras.  Given the time required to read/write to/from the flash
card and to download over a USB connection, I was able to get one image
every 30--60 seconds depending upon the image size (1768x1168 can be one
at the rate of 1 image every 50--60sec on the above cameras).

Using gphoto2 you can determine the camera features supported *WITHOUT*
actually purchasing the camera.  For instance, just try the following
commands:

  gphoto2  -a --camera "Canon PowerShot S40" 
  gphoto2  -a --camera "Olympus C-2020Z"

and you'll get the abilities for two different cameras.  Notice that the
latter camera supports both image capture and image preview.  The image
preview feature sounds like it might be able to give you a faster but
lower resolution image that might satisfy your positioning needs.

good luck,
Ed

Sorry for the semi-OT nature of this post.  If you know of a more 
appropriate forum, please let me know.

I need to be able to control a camera to take photos.  I'm currently using 
the tools provided by Canon for their cameras, but those tools are 
Windows-only, and, of course, they're only for Canon cameras.  I'd prefer 
to have a bit more choice of both camera and PC platform.

What makes this difficult is that I not only need to be able to tell the 
camera to take a photo and download it, I need to be able to ask it for a 
continual stream of images to give a live view of what the camera lens is 
currently seeing.  The purpose of this is to give feedback for proper 
positioning of the subject given a stationary camera.  So my question is:  
does the PTP specification support this?  If it does, I'll buy a copy of 
the spec and get to work implementing it in jPhoto.  If not, well, I guess 
I'm stuck with proprietary solutions.

Thanks for any comments/ideas/recommendations,

Shawn.

My camera is Canon PowerShot A70. It supports PTP as said in the camera 
documentation.
If I type "jphoto devinfo", I have the same message:
I/O exception: control write error -- USB endpoint stall -- Broken pipe [32]

One of these days I should make some time to update that
software ... say, for gcj 3.3!  :)

And the software is working basically OK.  "jphoto devinfo"
would also be interesting.  Which Canon model is this?

Basically, some control request was stalled by the device.
Presumably it doesn't lock up or anything after that; most
cameras should have better quality than that.

   Type     33 =3D=3D 0x20 =3D=3D OUT,CLASS,INTERFACE
	standard USB usage
   Request 102 =3D=3D 0x66 =3D=3D CLASS_DEVICE_RESET
	specific to PTP; see BaselineInitiator

I seem to recall some problems handling device resets back
when I first wrote that code.  I never quite got to the
bottom of it, but this looks like that same problem.

Do you know why that reset was requested?   There's also a
"ResetDevice" request that can be made on bulk transport.
I suspect I guessed the wrong answer as to how those two
are "expected" to be used.

An easy way to deal with this is to assign your user ID rights to jphoto using sudo.

If you have sudo on your distro, type visudo from root.

This will bring up your sudoer file (which has to be edited using visudo).

Add the following line to the section with the Command Alias' in it

Cmnd_Alias            JPHOTO=/usr/bin/jphoto

(this assumes that's where you've put jphoto).

Then, in the User Specification section, assign your user ID rights like this

mirec            ALL=NOPASSWD:JPHOTO

This assumes your user id is mirec, if not, change it to whatever it is.

Save the file.

This should allow you to use jphoto as mirec with no request for a password.

Cheers

Cam

Hi Mirec

Have you read this bit on on
sourceforge:http://jphoto.sourceforge.net/?selected=3Dsync  It will clear
that problem up for you.  I'm running jphoto non-root, but I need to buy
some memory because I'm using internal memory which does not work.

Hello there

I've installed ghoto2 and gtkam.  What should the settings be in
usb.usermap and usbcam?  both are owned by the user but I think I may be
doing something wrong.  

I can't get the --print-usb-usermap to work.  Does it need to be made
executable?

regards

Use jphoto from CVS.
Anyway gphoto2 supports PTP cameras as Kodak CX4230 (mine) and yours.
With Knoppix ( http://www.knoppix.org ), works OK with no addittional
configuration.
You can get gphoto2 at http://gphoto.sourceforge.net/proj/
It works perfectly for all purpose.

Bye.

Hi Guys

I have a kodak dx4330, camera  I did a jphoto status on the camera and
got this response.  Can anyone advise what actions I need to take? 
Secondly using lastest jphoto rpm, redhat 8.0 kernel 2.4.18 18.8.0 and
does jphoto support kodak dx4330?

The fix is in jPhoto CVS -- you may need a bit of tweaking to get
it to apply on your hardware.

One of these days I really ought to put out a new release, but
you have the code and it shouldn't be hard to fix.

Hello,

I hope, someone could help me.

I try to install a camera (DC 4800) for making pictures for a "fast-motion"
film.
A RedHat-7.3-Server takes every 6 min a picture and saved it on the HDD.

But now I want to zoom the camera from a distance, using the PTP. I wrote
the following code to set a property, but the camera timed out at: "status=
dev.setDevicePropValue(propcode, devValue);". (I wrote it especially for
DigitalZoom, so I coded UInt8 and Value 16 in the compiled Program)

Have anyone the same problem, or have solved it?

Thank you for all answers,

Andreas Gerhard



The method:

	private static void setprop(String argv[], int index) throws IOException
	{
		if (index != (argv.length - 2))
			usage(-1);

		int propcode;
		Initiator dev;
		DeviceInfo info;

		propcode= DevicePropDesc.getPropertyCode(argv[index + 1]);
		if (propcode < 0)
		{
			System.err.println("unrecognized property name: " + argv[index + 1]);
			System.err.println("'jphoto devinfo' lists device properties");
			System.exit(1);
		}
		dev= startCamera();

		try

One minor correction: when I run the program on tty1 (as apposed to GUI 
Konsole), I got more error report:

# ./jphoto images
PTP device at usb-e000-2
STORE: 0
usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 218
usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_BULK failed dev 9 ep 0x81 len 64 ret -32
I/O exception: { response; len 12; StoreNotAvailable; xid 2 }

Thanks for any clue/suggestion,

Hi,
Here is a problem that I'm experiencing:

JPhoto: version 0.3.6-i386
Camera: Kodak DX3700 (there are about two or three photos in the camera 
already)
CPU: Intel Celeron
OS: Redhat 7.3 (Kernel 2. 4.18-3)
Symptoms:

# java -version
java version "1.3.1_04"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_04-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1_04-b02, mixed mode)

#  ./jphoto cameras
usb-e000-2      KODAK DX3700 Digital Camera

#  ./jphoto images
PTP device at usb-e000-2
STORE: 0
I/O exception: { response; len 12; StoreNotAvailable; xid 2 }

# ./jphoto storage
PTP device at usb-e000-2
Stores: 2
STORE: 0
I/O exception: { response; len 12; StoreNotAvailable; xid 2 }

Any idea?

Many thanks,

In 
http://barrapunto.com/article.pl?sid=02/09/05/1028222&mode=thread&threshold=
you have a review of the Kodak CX-4230 camera with jphoto (in Spanish).
Basically it works with jphoto but:
-Must use CVS version because the storage (internal memory) problems.
-JPhtoto does not allow to put an object or file in the camera as it was 
forbidden by the camera firmware. It is allowed because with Windows 
software you can put any file in the camera internal memory (I have put 2 
MP3's and 3 txt files).

-In Windows you connect the USB cable to the camera and see a new regular 
drive (G: in my case) where you can copy, read, delete the photos and put, 
delete, modify, etc any other file up to the size of the memory.

-The previous thing confirms that the camera can be mounted as a regular 
drive, how can we achieve this in Linux? It would be great to do an 'mount 
/dev/camera /mnt/mycamera' and be able to read, delete and write contents of 
the internal memory or MMC card of the camera.
-If you know some way to do this mount please comment it, perhaps some JUSB 
tweaking, perhaps minor JPhoto changes?
-If you know how to do it I can try to adap it.

Thanks for JPhoto.

You'll have to supply a patch, or wait till someone else does.

As I recall, "movies" are not actually reported by the camera
as an "image" type file, so there's some tweaking to be done
to the download code.

The hotsync cradle is not necessary, it does no magic.
