This is a simple CCTV system. It uses your webcam to take live video that can be streamed to a web portal on a local web server (nginx).

ysee-camera-system's Issues

Hi it's me ansel from summer camp at visst do you remember me?

***KNOWN BUG*** Error: Opening /dev/video0... stat: No such file or directory.

iSee Camera Server will output error: "Opening /dev/video0... stat: No such file or directory" randomly. This is a known bug without a clear fix. There are also some troubleshooting steps.

If you are getting this error in bursts (normal data interjected by error, then back to normal), that is unknown on how to fix. It is a bug of fswebcam, as shown here. If you are getting this error as the primary content of the terminal window, or the picture is frozen, here are some fixes.

1. In a new terminal window, type "killall cams.sh", then in terminal use cd to navigate to the directory that iSee is installed in, then type "./cams.sh".
2. Unplug/replug the webcam
3. Reboot the PC then relaunch iSee.
4. If you are still experiencing this issue, contact iSee at [email protected]
