If they incorporate the specific driver to Android and Remix OS, then any USB camera should be natively recognized by the device. Hope it won't take long as these are absolute BASIC features even for beginners...
UVC driver already integrated onto the next Android image and works well. I still hold on to this release due to one minor issue. Once resolved in 24 hours time, I will spend my Saturday time (California) to upload the new Android image. Hopefully this still consider as fulfill the 1st week of May delivery as promised.
This is very important and it's great that it's finally resolved!
Now the only thing is with HDMI: To be able to choose resolution manually as one of my boards is planned to be used with a standard HD TV (720p).
Also resolved, the new build able to select either 720p or 1080p. The minor issue that I mentioned is related to 720p boot up screen. BTW, the screen adjustment issue also resolved on this new build. Another new item that improvement on the new build is new mac address assignment scheme that ensure no duplicated mac address been generated and every board can automatically generated its new own mac address in Android and Remix build. Hopefully this new mac address assignment can adopted by Linux build.
That's very nice. These improvements make the coming build the first real worthwhile release IMO.
That thing with MAC address is also very important as now I suppose it will be much easier to obtain a static IP and work stably.
