Ask Your Question

Revision history [back]

I finally got a solution to the problem. This might help someone out there facing the same problem. Rather i would say i avoided the problem and not really solved the problem. I was able to get a video stream from the preinstalled Debian Distro. OpenCV 3.0.0 seems to have some issues. It is the one that keeps on giving the "select timeout error". I thought it was a v4l driver problem but then i had to compile v4l from source to get the latest update but still obtaining the same error.

What i don't really get is is that, is it a BBB hardware or some driver problem? Why i ask that question is that, the code can run well in an Ubuntu 14.04 PC with installed OpenCV 14.04 LTS.

I hope someone can try it and if there is a solution, i have my eyes open to see it because i would like to use some SIFT packages in OpenCV 3.0.0 on my BBB.
