This post is a wiki node editable by every user of this forum with trust level 1 (TL1) or higher. You should be able to edit it to add your own webcam compatibility information if you've participated at least a bit on this forum.
While OctoPrint doesn't directly support webcams, using a webcam together with mjpg-streamer as bundled on OctoPi is the recommended procedure to get visual feedback.
If you have a webcam in use with mjpg-streamer that is not listed here already, please add it to help people get a grasp of what works.
You might have to play around with mjpg-streamer's configuration parameters to get a cam to work. Do so by editing /boot/octopi.txt if you are running OctoPi. Please document the options you used here as well.
A webcam stream usually calls for the command ./mjpg_streamer -i "input_uvc.so $camera_usb_options" -o "output_http.so -w ./www" where camera_usb_options="-n -r VGA -f 5 -q 50", for example, has already been called (from the terminal or a script like OctoPi's webcamd which reads in configuration from /boot/octopi.txt).

The wide FOV gives the ability to position camera at a super short distance. Note that cropped frames are very usable as the camera is so wide that full 16:9 frame will show surroundings if you place it in corner (120° FOV!), the printbed easily fits within 4:3 cropped area for this webcam. Tested on OctoPi w/ OctoPrint 1.3.2 and Raspberry Pi 1 Model B, both via direct connection and via powered USB hub. kroko If the camera isn't working, try to set the FPS up to 30, 25 FPS might not work! kr0l |

- You may need to run a few commands to get it running.
sudo -srpi-updatereboot- OCybress - I tried the above command, but ends with 'invalid hash'
- I used the settings above; nothing else seemed to work. The -y made the big difference. - triestelaporte
- (13th May 2016) Confirming above settings camera_usb_options="-y -q 75 -f 1" with Pi 3, Octoprint Version 1.2.11 (master branch) - gzcwnk
- (14th August 2016) Had to edit the variable in /root/bin/webcamd instead of /boot/octopi.txt config changes to work, with Pi 3, Octoprint Version 1.2.10 (master branch) - BigRamen
- This camera does not support MJPG natively, so consumes 100% cpu (of one core) on my Raspberry Pi 3, 24/7. It never overheated or crashed my RPi, but was still a concern. I switched to the Logitech C270 and it uses no CPU. - JustinHoMi

- make sure you have gspca-cpia1.ko or appropriate gspca driver for your camera
- use https://sourceforge.net/code-snapshots/svn/m/mj/mjpg-streamer/code/mjpg-streamer-code-r182-mjpg-streamer.zip
- apt-get install libv4l-dev libv4l-0 (i'm using armbian on orangepiwin, on raspbian may differ)
- uncomment PLUGINS += input_gspcav1.so on Makefile
- edit vi plugins/input_gspcav1/spcav4l.h and add in the beginning #define BASE_VIDIOCPRIVATE 192
- edit vi plugins/input_gspcav1/spcav4l.h and plugins/input_gspcav1/utils.c and replace linux/videodev.h with libv4l1-videodev.h
- make
- LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./mjpg_streamer -o "output_http.so -w ./www" -i "input_gspcav1.so -f r16 -r VGA"

Troubleshooting
If your stream won't start, check that the streamer output is working correctly by calling ./mjpg_streamer -i "./input_testpicture.so -r VGA" -o "./output_http.so -w ./www". If you are able to stream two alternating jpg frames using this command, then mjpg_streamer is configured correctly and your previous input_uvc.so settings may be causing you trouble.
- input_testpicture.so doesn't exist for me. And it seems that http output now also requires a -w=./www parameter. Try this instead:
./mjpg_streamer -i "./input_file.so -f plugins/input_testpicture/pictures/ -e" -o "./output_http.so -w ./www -p 8080"- frankv
If top indicates high CPU usage from mjpg_streamer (about 40% of a Raspberry Pi 3 core, for example) due to the fact that mjpg_streamer won't work without the -y option, you can try an additional utility called v4l2grab to process the YUYV format for mjpg_streamer by exporting jpgs to a tmpfs directory. Start by calling ./mjpg_streamer -i "input_file.so -r -d 0 -f /dev/shm" -o "./output_http.so -w ./www"; it will display and delete new files. Then, call ./v4l2grab -c -m -q 50 -o "/dev/shm/"; do not forget the trailing / on this command, which continuously captures jpgs of 50% compression without bound.
