Revision history [back]

The manual is just for the gstreamer0.10-plugins-good library, which is used by gscam to publish the output of the webcam over ROS, in a server edition of ubuntu that library is not included so you have to manually install it usign

sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-good
