Webcam elianzo driver

**anton** · 23-Jan-2021, 22:40

I have a new webcam HD Elianzo.
Works perfect out of the box only I have low resolution 640x640 so I need support.
Is there a driver for linux ?

If it is working at all in Linux environment, you have driver support.

To find the driver, look for the relevant output form the following command...

Code:

usb-devices

It will list all connected USB hardware, one block will pertain to the webcam device.

Yes i see a list usb-devices
The problem is not that the webcam not worked but is shows only low resolution 640x640

Your first question was whether a Linux driver existed. The output from the command I gave you will tell you exactly which driver is loaded. I expected that you would post the relevant section including the chipset details. Then others might be able to advise further.

Try guvcview to see if there is a higher resolution.

Which program need a higher resolution?

OBS studio for making 3d tutorials.

That not enough IMHO. typically one should provide xxxx:yyyy but you only provided the xxxx (vendor) but not the yyyy (product).

I don't see that vendor ( 1b3f ) listed in the UVC listing of supported webcams: https://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/ ... but that could be an out of date list.

The UVC FAQ gives excellent information for troubleshooting webcams - prior to going to the UVC list for help.
