Enabling WebCam
You can use some USB webcams. You will need Video4Linux support for the kernel (videodev.o) and
an appropriate video driver for the webcam. I currently have compiled drivers that work with four of
my six webcams. You will also need some framegrabber software to capture video frames. I am
currently working on some.
Enabling CD-ROM
USB CD-ROM drives are also supported similarly to USB harddisks. You will need to install some
applications to rip and burn CD-ROMs [cdrtools-2.01.tar.gz]. A USB Mini-CD drive or a slim combo
CDRW/DVD drive would be a great companion for the Zaurus.
The CD-ROM will be detected as /dev/scd0 and can be mounted as follows:
# su
# mkdir -p /mnt/cdrom
# mount /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom
In addition, the following will be useful:
# su
# mknod /dev/pg0 b 11 0
# mknod /dev/sg0 b 11 0
# ln /dev/scd0 /dev/cdrom
# ln /dev/scd0 /dev/vcd
# ln /dev/scd0 /dev/dvd
echo "/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto ro 0 0" >> /etc/fstab
In order to copy VCDs or DVDs from the CD to your disk, you need to install mplayer
[mplayer-bvdd_1.1.5-1_arm.ipk] and mencoder [mencoder_1.1.0-1_arm.ipk]. A straight file copy
won't work.
To copy the VCD video file (.dat file) do the following:
# mencoder vcd//:2 -oac lavc -ovc lavc -o filename.avi
To extract the vob files from a DVD do the following:
# mencoder dvd://# -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=msmpeg4:vpass=1 -oac mp3lame -lameopts
vbr=3 -o movie.avi
# mencoder dvd://# -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=msmpeg4:vpass=2 -oac mp3lame -lameopts
vbr=3 -o movie.avi
