- gregsadetsky 6y agoThanks! HID in general? WebHID? Is it a bandwidth/data limitation? Something enforced by Chrome?
- tobinfricke 6y agoHID stands for Human Interface Device and usually means things like keyboards, mice, trackpads, etc https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_human_interface_device_class https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_human_interface_device_c...
- p1mrx 6y agoDo the EasyCAP devices actually use the HID device class? You could probably build a USB device that sends video over button presses, but that's not relevant for accessing hardware that already exists.
- voltagex_ 6y agoNo, they're UVC (at least the one I have is).
- gregsadetsky 6y agoThanks a lot, I learned something! I was also confused by seeing "Webcam" under the "Common HIDs" heading on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_interface_device https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_interface_device In all cases -- got it. HID -> not webcams. :-) Cheers!
