Notes

from Woozle

The brightness/contrast/etc. controls do not work with the cheapo webcam we got from Intrex (can't remember the brand), but that's not surprising because the notes say Philips only.

Can't figure out how to get the action_post_shot parameter to actually run anything:

action_post_shot convert /home/woozle/AppData/camE/webcam-temp.jpg -gamma 3.0 /home/woozle/AppData/camE/webcam-adj.jpg

This command works by itself, but there is no evidence that it is producing a file when camE is supposed to be running it.

Files:

  • '~/.camErc is the config file
