I have an arduino yun setup with a Logitech C270 web cam. I ssh into it and run the following command:
mjpg_streamer -i "input_uvc.so -d /dev/video0 -r 640x480 -f 25" -o "output_http.so -p 8080 -w /www/webcam" &
It works as intended. I made a python script so that when I run:
python stream.py
The camera starts up and I can stream. Also working as intended.
My question is: is there a way to disable the camera? As of right now the only way to turn it off is to unplug it or unplug the arduino.
I'm looking for another command I can run to turn it off.
My stream.py script looks like this:
from subprocess import call
call(
[
"mjpg_streamer",
"-i",
"input_uvc.so -d /dev/video0 -r 640x480 -f 25",
"-o",
"output_http.so -p 8080 -w /www/webcam",
"&"
]
