Hello!
I successfully managed to get my webcam (Papalook 720p webcam from amazon) to work just fine with Octoprint 1.3.8 on a RPi 3B. It works in multiple resolutions and framerates. CPU usage of haproxy is between 3-6%, mjpg_streamer 2-3%. Steady stream, very little delay after I dropped wifi on the RPi and plugged an ethernet cable.
What is the problem?
After ~10-15 minutes the stream stops. I'm having trouble pinning down the reason.
What did you already try to solve it?
Looking through google I suspected a powersupply issue. I'm using the original Raspberry PSU and measured 4.5V, so I added a powered USB-Hub and now measure 4.83V steady on the hub, I also placed the multimeter in the frame and on the last frame it was still 4.83. I guess this is not the issue. I have also tried to look through all sorts of logs but being rather new to Linux makes it a bit difficult to pin down the problem, so I figured it might be best to ask here.

I did not find a logfile for mjpg-streamer ...
Also here the octoprint log:

I would be super thankfull if somebody could guide me through where else I could look to pin down why it stops.
Thank you very much!
