I just did a quick Google search to see who is using my little libfg library these days, and I found a neat project. It's always nice to see cool ways your code is being used that you never thought of...
It's called "A Waste of Time" but it is actually a rather cool hack that involves a PlayStation and libfg. If you are at all interested, read all about it...
libfg
hi,
do you have any support group/list etc where users can post questions? I am using your libfg too but as usual theres always some hiccups in th beginning...such as fg_open fails.

Hello Aman,
I don't currently have a mailing list for libfg, mainly due to the volume (or lack thereof!) of questions about it. Feel free to email me (gavinb at this site) with any questions you may have.
The most common reasons for fg_open() failing are:
The permissions should normally be set on /dev/video0 to have group rw-, with group video and the user running the software being a member of that group.
The videodev module should be specified in /etc/modules so that it is automatically loaded at boot time.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to post here or email me.
Regards,
:: Gavin
