Catalina support

Open obruchez opened this issue 5 years ago • 13 comments

I've just upgraded to Catalina.

imagesnap -l returns "No video devices found."

It worked well with Mojave.

I got the same issue too. Luckily it is a simple fix. Until PR is merged, my fork here: https://github.com/samwize/imagesnap

@samwize I'm trying to use your fork on Catalina. I built it successfully, but I can't seem to specify an output file. Running ./imagesnap out.jpg outputs the image in the same directory with the default name snapshot-00000-2019-11-01_19-47-27.206.jpg

Am I missing something?

I'm with this problem also. After update the only path and name for new pictures is: /userHomeFolder/snapshot-00000-2019-11-18_10-07-50.571.jpg I've tryed differents path and simple names but doesn't work.

Hi! Thanks for fixing imagesnap. I noticed that now, in Catalina, imagesnap -l returns

Video Devices:
<AVCaptureDALDevice: 0x7f854de44a50 [FaceTime HD Camera (Built-in)][0x1420000005ac8600]>
<AVCaptureDALDevice: 0x7f854de4a4a0 [Logitech BRIO][0x14400000046d085e]>

Instead of

Video Devices:
FaceTime HD Camera (Built-in)
Logitech BRIO

Is there any easy way to fix this?

Don't you want also to fix those bugs (device list and file name parameter) what you can see above?

Any progress on this ? @samwize A downloadable binary would be awesome ! (as I haven't set up the toolchain for macos development yet and also not really deep on macos development)

@rhuss I have a build here https://github.com/samwize/lolcommits/blob/306dd0ebf21464de2d7824cfae841517cd094b1f/vendor/ext/imagesnap/imagesnap

samwize avatar Mar 25 '20 08:03 samwize

@samwize is the output file bug fixed in your build?

koichirose avatar Mar 25 '20 08:03 koichirose

The fix is actually in the Info.plist. The binary must be alongside with the Info.plist. I wrote about it in https://samwize.com/2019/10/13/info-plist-for-a-macos-command-line-app/

Thanks a ton ! works for me, also specifying the device from the list as before (e.g. ./imagesnap -d "HD Pro Webcam C920" /tmp/o.jpg). I have no issues with the output path.

The only (minor) glitch that the list still contains unnecessary boilerplate like in

./imagesnap -l
Video Devices:
<AVCaptureDALDevice: 0x7fd7d4c69480 [HD Pro Webcam C920][0x14331000046d082d]>
<AVCaptureDALDevice: 0x7fd7d4f17630 [FaceTime HD Camera (Built-in)][0x8020000005ac8514]>

but I can live with this.

Thanks again !

I'm curious if this is still an issue for people. I have a Mojave system and a Big Sur system -- brackets Catalina. I'll probably never have a Catalina computer at this point, so I'm not sure if there's anything I can do.
