Syntek webcam works?

[el_oficinista]

I can think that WebcamCompat page is outdated or integrated webcam is not supported, in any case I cannot run after setting webcamd. Kamoso or Cheese can't find any device in FreeBSD/i386 12.1.

ugen4.2: <Syntek USB2.0> at usbus4, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH (480Mbps) pwr=ON (500mA)

Are you loading webcamd(8) ? What does webcamd -l show? Did you load Cuse module?

pwcview is a basic viewer used for testing.

pkg install webcamd pwcview v4l_compat libv4l
Follow instructions on screen to load Cuse and Webcamd. Then reboot.
Check your video:
pwcview -s uxga -f 30
Webcam set to: 1280x720 (uxga) at 30 fps
