  • Virtual capture device /dev/video0

    Been a very happy Hyperion ambilight user for several years now but my AV setup recently changed thus my light config also needs to.


    For experimental, but necessary reasons, I am manipulating my capture feed finally exporting it as a video output device /dev/video0 using v4l2loopback and ffmpeg. The manipulated feed works great and I can capture proper screengrabs from it using streamer on the command line. It is properly encoded as UYVY which is a compatible format for Hyperion.


    My problem is that if I try to grab a screenshot from Hypercon I get


    [INDENT]ssh in: hyperion-v4l2:
    ssh in: version : V1.03.3 (brindosch-2fbbcff/2f01dfa-1495880388
    ssh in: build time: Jun 3 2017 02:06:37
    ssh out: VIDIOC_S_STD ERROR 25, Inappropriate ioctl for device    [/INDENT]


    From my searches, the usual answer is that "chipset is not supported" however this is a virtual device and has no "chipset". Is there any way for me to just "plug in" this virtual capture feed in to Hyperion?


    I know that some of my v42l-ctl --all output (below) is different from a regular USBTV007 device output. Are there essential pieces I need to match up for it to work maybe?


    Thanks.
