Test on rPi B (256 MB)

[txt-file]

I tried with the http://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/images/raspbian-2020-02-07/ on a rPi4 and it worked. Then I switched the SD to my rPi B (256 MB) model and it doesn't work. The systemd service is running and uvc-gadget is constantly using 100 % cpu. If it works with a rPi A (without +) it should work with a B, shouldn't it?

Otherwise great timing for doing the youtube video. I was searching for a webcam last weekend and was very disappointed that I can get a rPi cam HQ for ~50 € but no regular 4k webcam for that price.

Maybe has something to do with geerlingguy/uvc-gadget#1

@txt-file unfortunately, according to some posts I found today over in #5, it looks like the original model B does not have the proper pins for OTG usage. Currently only the 4, A/A+, and 0/0W can work with this project.

thanks @geerlingguy … I did not yet stumble over that specific #5 (comment)
Time to search for a 0 or A then. :-)

Did Red Shirt Jeff try it with any of the Compute Modules?

@starbasessd - No, he has not... it doesn't seem like OTG is supported on the current IO board design though—it would need to be done through a different interface board.
