Movies are rather large and may fill up your sd card or EMMC quickly. Otherwise you won’t be able to http-stream to other computers.Ĭhange ‘target_dir’ to anything you like, but preferably a folder outside of your armbian board with more storage capacity. (search for ‘width’ and ‘height’) and adapt accordingly.įind ‘stream_localhost’ and turn it off. Highest resolution I could get from the C270 camera is 1280x960. Also the needed modules are loaded automatically (use the lsusb and lsmod commands to see it). The C270 camera works right out of the box and is auto-detected by Armbian. This is not needed for camera operation, but makes life easier… you can now access your Armbian installation with the Microsoft remote desktop protocol. xrdp and tightvncserver enable remote desktop. Then after restart ‘apt install xrdp tightvncserver motion’. Performed the usual ‘apt update’ and ‘apt upgrade’ + reboot after installation. The Armbian desktop version makes file editing easier, but is not mandatory.
You get what you pay for.Īll I did was a fresh Armbian desktop v5.20 installation. Price / 'bang for the buck' ratio is more or less the same for both camera’s if you ask me. Also IMHO the C270 is a better camera than the famous GC2035, but it is also more expensive. Benefit of such a cam is that you now have a cable from your SBC to your cam which makes (physical) cam installation easier IMHO. Also el-cheapo shops like lightinthebox sell the C270. I’ve used a Logitech C270 which can be purchased from eBay for roughly 20 Euros. This post is to share my successful webcam installation with Armbian and one of my SBC’s (orange pi plus).
