Afaict, gscam
just hasn't been released for Indigo, but that doesn't mean you can't build it yourself. According to gscam/issues/17, it should compile and work fine.

Afaict, gscam
just hasn't been released for Indigo, but that doesn't mean you can't build it yourself. According to gscam/issues/17, it should compile and work fine.
Edit: In general the process to build from source is something like:
mkdir -p $HOME/your/catkin_ws/src
cd $HOME/your/catkin_ws/src
git clone http://url/to/git/repository.git
cd $HOME/your/catkin_ws
source /opt/ros/indigo/setup.bash
# do what rosdep wants you to do (but use common sense, obviously)
rosdep install --from-paths src --ignore-src
catkin_make
See also catkin/Tutorials/create_a_workspace. And replace $HOME/your/catkin_ws
and http://url/to/git/repository.git
with the real path and URL.
note: I have not tested this for gscam
, but the process should be similar. It could be that gscam
needs some tweaks/fixes to build under Indigo.
If you haven't, I recommend you follow the ROS tutorials, as that will familiarise you with much of the terminology and commands, and make things like follow up tutorials (and the Answers on this site) much easier to understand.

It seems to work properly thanks a lot, However still i get errors when i try to recieve images from a wifi camera [..]
Edit2: If the gscam
pkg builds and runs, then you would probably need to figure out what the exact GSCAM_CONFIG
environment variable is you need to access your phone's camera. See wiki.ros.org/gscam for more information. You should be able to use any tutorial on Gstreamer to figure out how to exactly configure it, and use that knowledge to configure gscam
.
( i ve been trying with my phone connected as a cam)
If it is an Android device, you might be interested in the ROS Android Sensors Driver. You can just install that on your phone, and start streaming images. No need for gscam
