Logitech Webcam Software Download

Gamers, bloggers, freelancers and other users use Logitech webcams all the time. Logitech is one of the most popular manufacturers of these devices. This product became especially popular during the quarantine period, when everything went online, including study and communication. Cameras don’t always work correctly on their own. Therefore, it is important for each owner to understand why and how to install the Logitech webcam driver.

What is a Logitech webcam driver anyway? This is software that can be called an intermediary between the device and the computer system. Each device has its own set of drivers: from the keyboard to the computer’s video card. And webcams, of course, too. It is thanks to the Logitech webcam software that you will be able to make the camera work perfect.

What problems does the Logitech webcam driver solve?

There are situations when the Logitech camera drivers are not suitable or the device simply does not fit well with a laptop or computer due to the lack of certain software. In such cases, various problems arise, for example:

• the camera is not displayed in the list of connected devices;
• does not work correctly, for example, the image is shown upside down;
• regardless of the speed of the Internet, the connection is bad, the camera is buggy.

Of course, there is very little benefit from using such a device. And this can happen with any camera, both consumer and professional.
Then the original Logitech drivers for cameras of a particular brand are saved. They are ideally combined with both the camera itself and the system on which they are installed.

Linux Driver for Quickcam USB cameras

This site hosts the Linux driver for the QuickCam Express and other QuickCam-related and QuickCam-compatible USB web cameras. The original work was done by Georg Acher and was known as qce-ga; Jean-Frederic Clere took that driver and created the first Video4Linux (V4L) driver, enabling popular V4L applications such as Xawtv to display pictures from the webcam. Since then, a group of developers around the world have evolved the driver into its current state, adding support for new cameras and chipsets as they have become available. In the process, the driver became known as qc-usb to reflect the fact that it supports a wide variety of USB-attached QuickCam cameras, not just the QuickCam Express.

Current Version

Supported Cameras

The qc-usb driver is known to work with the following webcams:

• Dexxa Webcam
• Labtec Webcam (old model)
• LegoCam
• Logitech QuickCam Express (old model)
• Logitech QuickCam Notebook (some models)
• Logitech QuickCam Web

Generally, any USB camera with a USB vendor ID of 0x46d and a USB product ID of 0x840, 0x850, or 0x870 (so, 0x46d:0x840, for example), should work. See How to find the USB ID of a camera.

Download

1. The qc-usb driver was originally focused on the QuickCam Web, but should now work with all cameras that work also with qce-ga. It contains a superset qce-ga’s features and is the preferred driver. Almost everyone will use this driver. Download it from our Sourceforge release page.
2. The CVS versions available by following the Sourceforge CVS usage instructions. The module names are quickcam and qc-usb.

Installation

This section explains how to compile and install the qc-usb driver for the Linux kernel. For the most current instructions, please read the README that comes with the driver. These instructions explain how to compile the driver as a standalone module, which is the only option at this time because the driver has not (yet) been integrated into the mainline kernel.

The following requirements must be met:

• Kernel >= 2.2.18, kernel 2.4.x, or kernel 2.6.x with USB and V4L support. If you are running a version 2.2 kernel, you really need to upgrade to at least 2.4.
• Kernel source for the kernel you are running. The symbolic link /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build should point to the source directory.
• A working installation of gcc >= 2.95

Unsupported Cameras

Other webcams produced by Logitech are supported under Linux but use a separate driver. The following Logitech webcams are not compatible with this driver and are supported by other drivers:
