Back in 2016, I bought a Digital Microscope in China. It came with a CD containing the driver, manual, and operating system, suitable for Windows XP through Windows 7. Since I switched to Linux Mint a few years ago and now need the microscope for SMD work, I was worried it would no longer be usable. Thanks to AI, I discovered that Linux often works with standard Linux UVC drivers. I installed the Guvcview program via Software Manager and, in the video settings, selected device: USB 2.0 UVC, PC Camera: USB 2.0 UV. And... bingo, we have video!
It works great! It's more responsive than cheese or gnome camera for that matter and it also detects my old usb webcam which no other program except this one and OBS seem to
Detected my cheap Aliexpress endoscope camera and lets me take pictures with it. Just what I was looking for.
[Cinammon 21, Guvcview] Works very well with everything I plugged into it, even the Veho microscope which is an achievement. Good set of image options and useful hotkeys. Didn't come up in my software manager search so maybe people are missing it like I did until I stumbled on a web review. Could probably do with a more descriptive name.
Working very weel on my 32 bit Asus F7F, with my web cam which was targeted for win Vista, on all other OS's I had a video screen upside down including app Cheese, but this app automatically rotated the screen.
Works great on Linux Mint 19.3 with Logitech C920, has tuns of configuration options, records video and audio, its almost perfect!
Nice program. I need to restart the program at first use for it to functioning. idk but fps is too low
Excelente programa, muy buena interfaz gráfica permite todas las configuraciones de audio y video. Captura fotos, video y audio sin problemas.
Was using Cheese hapily, and then it strted to freeze for video capture. This works much better for simple webcam video capture.
