Webcam cannot Higher resolution

Hi,

I have a Raspberry PI 3 with Astroprint. I connected a Logitech C270 webcam.
I can only use the LOW resolution 640x480 resolution. When I choose 1280x720 there is no video and Astroprint says there is no camera connected !

Please advice, I bought the C270 because of the “HD” resolution.

Regards,

Ricardo

Is there anyone who has a suggestion?
Anyone who has a working hd webcam?

The ones here ( some are HD ) are tested and working: https://astroprint.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/203050005-What-cameras-can-I-use-with-AstroPrint-

Who says those work well… I am sending the C270 back to to shop…

I also keep dropping connection with my Astrobox RPI 3… not stable… I cannot print cannot rely on Astrobox (Monoprice select mini V3)…

Those are the ones we ( the AstroPrint team ) test with and use on a daily basis.

Your connection problems with the printer are perhaps related to your USB cable or power supply. More info here: https://astroprint.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001797403-Why-does-my-printer-disconnect-in-the-middle-of-a-print-

I now bought the tested logitech c920.
I can choose the 1280x720 resolution now, but there is no fullhd 1080p resolution to choose…
Can this be added?

Looking into it for next release.

Done: https://github.com/AstroPrint/AstroBox/commit/8ad8b5e7f001945316d964aa3dbc9a0dee2150c9

You will see it when 0.10(10) comes out

Thanks. When can I update to this new version?

It would be public sometime next week
