I installed camera skill in mycroft which runs on virtualbox Ubuntu 20.04 env. When I requested “take a selfie” or “Open the camera”. I can hear mycroft is replying “starting the camera” but screen shows only all black. I tried cheese camera app in my ubuntu env which is working properly.
Anyone knows how to solve this issue? Is this caused by running in Virtualbox env?
Thanks a lot.
you need to have all the gstreamer plugins and qt multimedia packages installed on your ubuntu focal system
Thanks a lot for the help. After I installed gstreamer plugins and qt multimedia packages I can trigger event but seems taking photo still got failed. I copied detail debug console output below. seems issue in qml? I’m a newbie to qml. Really appreciate if you could kindly help to suggest.
