The cameras probably come in two types, ones that are UVC compliant

It is not plug and play it needs HPBSC driver (HP Basic Starter Camera
driver)

In Windows, if I go to Settings : Control Panels : Scanners and Cameras,
I can see a single entry in there for "USB Video Device". You
can use that entry, to test captures from your camera. But
again, that assumes your drivers are working. At the moment,
with my UVC compliant camera, it took over 30 seconds,
but eventually the "Scanner and Camera Wizard" is displaying
an image of what my camera is focused on.I can take snapshots
that way. While UVC makes the basic features of the camera
work, it is not the whole story - I need to install the driver
for my camera, in order for it to achieve its highest resolution
setting. So some custom features don't work with UVC alone.
But I can easily take test snapshots, to prove the camera
works.


Apologies, didn't read it properly, the computer has already got a UVC
plug and play working on your computer before taking 30 seconds to get
a picture. Then you install a special driver. But google seems to
suggest i think that Linux needs a UVC driver?

I presume your operating system is MS Windows XP because this is
microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware but is probably the 32 bit
version?

"USBPCCamPlus_v5.18.1.005_120standard(1.3M).ex e" is also available
here

Is that searching for drivers?


Look in your "Control Panel" folder, for an item called "Scanners and Cameras".
If an image device has a proper driver installed, the device may be registered
and detected in "Scanners and Cameras".


This screenshot shows "Scanners and Cameras" but there's nothing below
it, meaning nothing detected.

http://cid-64f5892d2f88d17f.photos.l...era%20plus.JPG

When I have tried to uninstall Amcap (from the mini CD I received with
the camera), it goes through the uninstall process but afterwards I go
to the start menu, programs and find it is still there and am able to
launch the program exactly as before! So I decided to resort to using
the add/remove programs feature to finally get rid of it and have
things back to how it was before.

But letting windows hunt for drivers - where it settled on the HP
Basic Starter Camera driver, I try Picasa but that doesn't get any
pictures and nothing in "Control Panel" "Scanners and Cameras".

I tried plugging in the dental camera into a 2nd PC also running
windows XP and this time i did *not* install the Amcap (USBPCCamPlus)
software. I instead decided to just let Windows automatically look for
drivers. In "Control Panel" "Scanners and Cameras" it shows HP Basic
Starter Camera and I got moving pictures! Picasa 3 also gets gets
moving pictures too.

Could the Amcap install have ruined the first computer that even an
uninstall didn't fix?

InstallShield installers, should usually have an uninstallation option.
And it should be visible in all the normal places. InstallShield would
normally do a decent job of uninstallation.

Now, I examined your driver installation, using Wine in Ubuntu 10.04
for safety. In there, I can find this directory - the contents of this,
hold portions of the USB PC Camera Plus installer. (I hope that
I have copied the directory name correctly - in the environment
I'm using, I cannot copy and paste these things.)

Program Files/InstallShield Installation Information/{ECD03DA7-5952-406A-8156-5F0C93618D1F}

In there is a file called "setup.exe". If you double click that, you
may see an install/uninstall dialog appear. That should allow InstallShield
to run the uninstallation, as defined by Sonix/Microdia when they set up
their InstallShield package. An uninstaller is only as thorough, as the
people using the tools, so if an idiot set up the InstallShield, then
it may leave garbage all over the place.

You should have seen uninstallation options in other places, such as
just below the Amcap entry in your Start:Programs entry for Amcap.

If you cannot find uninstallation options in the regular Windows places,
then find that {ECD03DA7-5952-406A-8156-5F0C93618D1F} directory and
use the "setup.exe" file inside. The options presented in the dialog
Window should be "Modify", "Repair", "Remove". Give the Remove a
try.

I notice as well, that installer sprinkled stuff in the C:\Windows
folder, which doesn't seem like such a good choice of a place for
such files. Hopefully, the uninstaller will sweep all that crap
out of there.

If that did not clean it up, you always have the option of reinstalling
it, to put the files back where they were, and trying the uninstallation
process again. If you've been manually deleting things, I can't predict
here, what InstallShield will think of that. But reinstalling would put
everything back, such that the uninstaller will get a chance to properly
remove it.

This is a picture of what the UVCView info looks like.

Some information on the parameters seen in UVCView.

You should be able to get VEN and DEV info from a plugged
in device. That program will also help you determine whether
the camera is alive at all or not.


I managed to finally get to use one of the PCs running WindowsXP and
ran USB device viewer. I've added the saved txt file here...

http://public.blu.livefilestore.com/...iew.TXT?psid=1

http://mygnxg.blu.livefilestore.com/...vyh.JPG?psid=1

The jpg says [port8] : HP Basic Starter Camera

idVendor: 0x0C45 = Sonix Technology Co., Ltd.
idProduct: 0x613C

So i look at this webpage

http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Docum...inux/gspca.txt
shows it as

307 sonixj 0c45:613c Sonix Pccam168

I was expecting it to say sn9c120 because that is what the computer
told me it was when i installed the USBPCCamPlus software all that
time ago. Why's it different?

The "USBPCCamPlus_v5.18.1.005_120standard(1.3M).ex e" installs the
snpstd3.inf file, and it has an entry for that camera type also.
The camera consists of a controller chip (SN9C120) and a sensor
chip (HV7131R).

USB\VID_0c45&PID_613c ; SN9C120 + HV7131R

So the same driver package should be working with that camera.

You should also see confirmation of the driver installation,
by looking in setupapi.log . Look for the 613c there. Also
inspect Device Manager again, to understand the current state
of the hardware you have plugged in.

The HV7131R is a 640x480 active pixel CMOS sensor.

A search for the terms Pccam168 and hv7131r, show they're part of the
same camera mechanism.

{USB_DEVICE(0x0c45, 0x613c), BSI(SN9C120, HV7131R, 0x11)}

So Pccam168 is the same thing as SN9C120 + HV7131R (controller + sensor).

The maximum resolution without using interpolation
should be 640x480 with the HV7131R sensor. Interpolation
is cheating and doesn't add any extra information
content. Interpolation is used on various optical
sensors, as a means to exaggerate their performance.

I eventually got round to finding a computer (called t3) which had
never had the dental camera plugged in. Normally i just let the
computer search for HP Basic starter camera driver but instead i
installed the troublesome software
USBPCCamPlus_v5.18.1.005_120standard(1.3M).exe from
http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=htt...-RGhk6lyAeIbAw

I've uploaded screen shot JPGs and files collectively here
https://cid-64f5892d2f88d17f.office....0&sa=610365145

they're also more individually here
https://cid-64f5892d2f88d17f.office....0&sa=408653088
https://nvneuq.blu.livefilestore.com...ownload&psid=1
https://nvneuq.blu.livefilestore.com...cap.TXT?psid=1

My 613c dental camera is in the snpstd3.inf and setupapi.log files
although PcCam168 isn't in either file.

When i plug this camera in it now says it found "USB PC Camera
[sn9c120]" when it usually just say "USB Camera". The jpg shows the
device manager still calls it "USB Camera" but with an exclamation
mark(!) and code 28 error: "the drivers for this device are not
installed". Device Instance Id on the jpg says ...

USB\VID_0c45&PID_613e\5&28CODE0&0&2

can't find 5&28CODE0&0&2 anywhere but 28CODE must be a reference to
code 28 error

I stopped at actually installing the driver for sn9c120 because of the
"not passed windows logo testing" message - although this same message
appeared for USBPCCamPlus_v5.18.1.005_120standard(1.3M).exe. I decided
to analyse the setupapi.log and snpstd3.inf files at this point.

I think the installation must have changed the identity of the camera.
It must think its sn9c120 now but its got it wrong i think. Whenever
I've plugged it in it has never said sn9c120 - well apart from once
when i pressed alt tab on another computer t6 with snapshot button
which i never installed the troublesome software but just HP Basic
starter camera driver.

There is this line in snpstd3.inf which mentions 613c

In USB Device view which i tried after installing it also has the !
exclamation mark and "no open pipes". I don't know if it would have
said this before i installed the troublesome software anyway - i
didn't try it. What does no open pipes mean?

Default Amcap (USBPCCamPlus) doesn't seem to work, does it work for you?

Do you mean two drivers are trying to run simultanerously? Unless the
instructions say to do that, it could cause a lot of problems.

Makes lots of sense.


I stopped at actually installing the driver for sn9c120
because of the
"not passed windows logo testing" message - although this
same message
appeared for
USBPCCamPlus_v5.18.1.005_120standard(1.3M).exe. I decided
to analyse the setupapi.log and snpstd3.inf files at this
point.


That message is pointless and generally useless as long as you trust the
software you have. MS at one time dreamed of being the king of all software
installations and thought the world would register their software with them.
Well, no one did of course, or hardly anyone, which makes sense. If it IS MS
trusted, then it should be fine to use. If it's not, it's up to the user to
know where they got the software from and to know it's safe to use (free of
bad code, malicious code, etc). So it's quite safe to use as long as you are
sure the place you got it from is a white hat. In other words, you used
common senseg.

HTH,

So Pccam168 is the same thing as SN9C120 + HV7131R (controller + sensor).


I forgot this bit. So I suppose it hasn't really changed identity.

I forgot I'd left the permission on these hyperlinks for 'just me'.
They're now public.

The bottom two which were direct hyperlinks to files rather then the
folder on my Skydrive don't work for some reason but that's hardly a
problme since thethe two two links above them work which give access
to all the files.
