Posted: Sun Feb 24, 2008 8:07 pm Post subject: [SOLVED] JVC Camcorder USB problems

Hi,

I have just bought a JVC camcorder (model GZ-MG175EK) and have a couple of problems with the USB connection to it for copying files from it. The camera has an internal HDD for recording video.

It is USB2.0 and the initial connection is made correctly. I get the following reported in messages:

Code:

Feb 24 19:39:29 polaris usb 1-6.3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 17
Feb 24 19:39:29 polaris usb 1-6.3: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
Feb 24 19:39:29 polaris uba: uba1
Feb 24 19:39:30 polaris hald: mounted /dev/uba1 on behalf of uid 1000

First problem is that as soon as the camera HDD is mounted I lose my USB keyboard. I have a Microsoft USB keyboard and mouse. The mouse continues to work but the keyboard blocks until the camera is switched off.

When the camera is mounted I can select a video file to copy but it always stops copying about 75% of the way through the file. When it stops copying I get the following reported:

Code:

Does anyone have any suggestions about how I start fixing this problem? I am assuming I have some sort of conflict between devices but I can't see what it is. When I plug in the camera lsusb reports:

Code:

Bus 004 Device 002: ID 045e:009d Microsoft Corp.
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 023: ID 04f1:0008 Victor Company of Japan, Ltd
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 050d:0234 Belkin Components F5U234 USB 2.0 4-Port Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

Any help would be gratefully received.

Cheers,

Arnie

[EDIT] It appears I didn't have any storage devices set in the kernel. Once I set these everything suddenly started working. Maybe this will fix some of the other USB storage problems I have been having :oops:
