Hello! I’m trying to create a duplicate of my USB video capture device so that I can stream and record it at the same time. Recording works fine with streamer
, and streaming works find with mplayer
. I have seen people using v4l2loopback
to create additional nodes for their video devices. When I try installing with
sudo apt-get install v4l2loopback-dkms
it produces the following output:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required:
libgconf2-4
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove it.
The following extra packages will be installed:
dkms
Suggested packages:
v4l2loopback-utils
The following NEW packages will be installed:

What should I do? Kernel headers are beyond the scope of my linux experience…
