using akvcam with qemu

[promeneur]

Hello

Is there a way to use an akvcam webcam with a qemu virtual machine ?

I assume this needs the akvcam to emulate an usb webcam with a vendoreid and a productid or something else.

Thanks

From host to guest? afaik, no, qemu doesn't seems to have any option for bypassing a v4l2 device. In theory, it would be possible to make it work there writing the functions to make it work as an USB Gadget, but don't expect it in the (not even) near time.
But if you want something like that, akvcam works pretty fine in VirtualBox.
