Hello,

I think that to communicate with webcam (hardware) require driver (linux module, uvc driver) and application (luvcview). As I follow this thread. I don't know why I have to download libwebcam and then recompile it to make luvcview to work (Now it's work, but I still don't know the reason). Is libwebcam significant for driver to work without application? (I want to write application by myself)

Thank you

There's no need to compile libwebcam! All you need is a header file (plus another one from the UVC driver) as described in the README file.

Thank you for explanation.
