Webcam In aMSN
Common errors:
[45]You are firewalled or behind a router
Mac OS X:
[46]Apple error code -9405
[47]People told my webcam picture is purple and my picture is double
Linux:
[48]You are using the pwc driver
[49]Webcamsn extension is not loaded. You have to compile it.
[50]Capture extension -Capture- is not loaded, you have to compile it
[51]If webcam still doesn't work on Linux, try the test procedure
Windows:
[52]The image output is distorted and/or amsn crashes with memory
access problems
You are firewalled or behind a router
If you are unable to view a webcam in aMSN after a contact has send
you an invite, or after you have issued the command to receive/send
webcam, and you are behind a router, you may need to follow these
steps:
If you receive: IP-Restrict-NAT and you receive false in webcam
wizard, that means your connection is firewalled. (does not send the
IP)
If this is the case, you will need to open some ports for the webcam
to use because they are currently blocked.
To do this, open your router web-based configuration (check router
manual for details on this). Once you have the web-based configuration
open, browse for a setting called "port forwarding" or "port range
forwarding" or something similar to that. (This might be found under
the advanced features for your router).
Now that you have the port forwarding page open, you will want to set
the port forwarding range so that aMSN will be able to accept and send
the webcam stream.
Here's an example of how you will set up your port forwarding:
Application: aMSN
Start: 6890
End: 6900
Protocol: Both(TCP & UDP)
IP: xxx.xxx.x.xxx
Enabled: X (Yes/True)
Note: xxx.xxx.x.xxx is the IP of your machine that you are trying to
send / receive webcam
If you have a web server open on your port 80, you can try to disable
it too, sometimes it helps.
General port instructions for Apple Airport Base Station or Airport
Express (of course, use ports 6891 to 6900 in the configurations)
[53]http://www.blueskyis.com/bittorrent/airportforwarding.php
Apple error code -9405 (Mac OS X)
You probably got this error when trying to send webcam to someone
else, if you don't have a webcam and want to see the webcam of
someone, go to actions menu and select "Ask this user to send you
his/her webcam"
If you have a webcam, this error means your camera is not pluged, if
you just pluged it, relaunch aMSN
If you tried to relaunch, it probably means your camera is not known
by QuickTime[54]?. Normally, it should works with Firewire camera
(like iSight) and DV cam, and with USB webcams supported on Mac OS X
If you have a USB webcam unsupported on Mac OSX you can take a loot
at:
iOXexperts ($$)
[55]http://www.ioxperts.com/products/webcamx.html
Macam (Free)
[56]http://webcam-osx.sourceforge.net/
UsbVision[57]? ($$)
[58]http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/14209
People told my webcam picture is purple and my picture is double (Mac
OS X)
If you have iOXexperts drivers to your camera version 0.8 update to
1.1
If you don't use iOXexperts try to update your camera drivers.
If you still have problems, go to aMSN Mac forum to ask for help
[59]http://forums.cocoaforge.com/viewforum.php?f=14
You are using the pwc driver (On Linux)
Those of you who are using this driver should know that this driver is
incomplete and may not work correctly with amsn... You won't be able
to change your settings like britghness/color/hue/ etc... You MAY not
be able to run it in high resolution mode unless you use the pwcx
proprietary driver. (But it seems there's now a PWC driver that
support high resolution). Note that aMSN currently supports only the
high resolution mode'
Webcamsn extension is not loaded. You have to compile it. (On Linux)
You need to make sure there is a webcamsn.so in /msn/utils/webcamsn/
and also in /msn/utils/webcamsn/webcamsn/
If these do not exist, you need to enter each of those directories and
type make to compile the source into a webcamsn.so file.

Capture extension -Capture- is not loaded, you have to compile it (On
Linux)
If you dont have a capture.so file, you will need to build it by
opening a console
and typing "make" in your /msn/utils/linux/capture directory. If
everything works correctly, you will have a capture.so file.
beast at 1[capture]$ make
beast at 1[capture]$ ls
capture.c capture.h capture.so CVS Makefile pkgIndex.tcl test.tcl
If capture seems not working so well with your webcam, you can try
that
./configure --disable-libng
make
If webcam still doesn't work on Linux, try the test procedure
The test is shipped only with the source packages, not the binaries,.
So, if you need to test your webcam, you have to download the sources
package at [60]http://amsn.sourceforge.net/download.php.
To run a test to make sure you webcam is functioning, go into your
/msn/utils/linux/capture directory and type :
user:/usr/share/amsn/utils/linux/capture/$ ./test.tcl
You should then obtain something like :
vid-probe: trying: v4l2...
ioctl VIDIOC_QUERYCAP: Invalid argument
open(/dev/video1): No such file or directory
open(/dev/video2): No such file or directory
open(/dev/video3): No such file or directory
vid-probe: trying: v4l...
open(/dev/video1): No such file or directory
open(/dev/video2): No such file or directory
open(/dev/video3): No such file or directory
Found OV519 USB Camera at /dev/video0
The test.tcl window should pop up with "camera settings" and "choose
device" buttons. Click "choose device". Your camera should be listed
underneath the Devices section. If you select the correct webcam
device, an option should appear under the Channels section. You can
click on this Channels option. If everything is functioning, you will
see a preview of your webcam functioning. You can then click on Camera
Settings. Under camera settings you can adjust your camera's
Brightness, Contrast, Hue, and Color.
If you have gotten the test.tcl to run, but still cannot use your
webcam, please try running the command v4l-info:
user:/usr/share/amsn/utils/linux/capture/$ v4l-info

This command will give you information about your webcam. If you have

should hopefully be able to help you.
The image output is distorted and/or amsn crashes with memory access
problems
At the moment the windows capturing program captures at the resolution
of the desktop. However tk requires its images to be in certain
resolutions. Therefore you need to set your screens colour resolution
to 32 bit (24bit may also work, I'm not sure though).
To change your colour resolution, right click on your desktop and
press 'Properties', then select the 'Settings' tab, finally in the
'Colors' drop down box select the '32 bit' option. You may need to
change the 'Screen area' if you can't select that colour resolution.
Hopefully this is a temporary problem and the capture code will be
improved to fix this problem.
