  • It seems that you don't have VL805 (Raspberry Pi 4).
    There should be no problems with USB (a.k.a. select() timeout)

Additional information about your setup (OctoPrint version, 1.5.2 and Octopi version 0.18.0)

There should be a /dev/video0 when the camera is detected. Did you try other usb ports?

Also which 0.18.0 are you using? the 32 or 64 bit build?

#3

Hi @PrintedWeezl

I am running the 32 bit build. I did move the camera to one of the USB 2 ports from the USB 3, I don't see the /dev/video0 it seems to start at 10 ???

Thanks for the reply.

Okay I got it to work, I made a change to the line above with regards to the "additional brokenfps_usb devices and removed what is in the brackets.

I was also able to up the framerate to 30 frames a second.
