I ask for help because I've been trying to get the webcam to work for days and I can't.
I state that the webcam works both on pc and before on rasberry which now I no longer have.

I installed on an octocitric orangepi 3lts and everything works perfectly except the webcam. I enabled the service I modified the octopi.txt file (through filezille because through ssh it doesn't save the file) and nothing at all I can't get anything to work. every time i go to http://myip/webcam/?action=stream always and usual error "" The webcam server is currently not running
If you do not have a camera attached, this is normal and can be safely ignored.ect ect"" via lsusb I have this

Hi,
For the camara to work you need to check this:

  1. The camera is recognized by the system.
  2. octopi.txt camera configuration must point to the correct video device. Typicall /dev/videoX
  3. webcam service must be enabled to start the streamer when booting.

Lests start with 1.
As your camera is recognized by lusb . Yo need to login with ssh and check the video device in linux

ls -ltrh /dev/video*
(this should show the video devices in your system)
sudo v4l2-ctl --list-devices
(this show the properties of the devices)
sudo v4l2-ctl --device=/dev/video0 --all
(this will show details of specific device, in this case the first device indentfied by linux)

Can you share this?
