Can't get zbar_ros to recognize QR code

edit

Hello,

Beginner here -- I am trying to use zbar_ros to read a qr code using my laptop's webcam. It doesn't seem to be able to subscribe to the /image topic and /barcode_reader isn't subscribed to anything. I am using Ubuntu 14.04 and ROS indigo. Any thoughts on what I am missing?

My launch file: <launch>

<node pkg="nodelet" type="nodelet" name="zbar_manager"  args="manager"/>

<!-- Example camera launch -->
<node pkg="nodelet" type="nodelet" name="uvc_camera" args="load uvc_camera/CameraNodelet zbar_manager">
    <remap from="image_raw" to="image"/>
<param name="device" type="string" value="/dev/video0"/>
</node>

<!--<node pkg="nodelet" type="nodelet" name="barcode_reader" args="load zbar_ros/barcode_reader_nodelet zbar_manager">-->
    <!--<param name="throttle_repeated_barcodes" type="double" value="2.0"/>-->
<!--</node>-->

<node pkg="zbar_ros" type="barcode_reader_node" name="barcode_reader">
    <param name="throttle_repeated_barcodes" type="double" value="2.0"/>
</node>

</launch>

$roslaunch zbar_ros customlaunch.launch
