I'm trying to tune my delanclip headtracker so it works better with flightgear on linux. Delanclip provides a tutorial video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHuNIzBmnSk&t=7s
showing how to tune two webcam video options:
1. the blackness of the background
2. the roundness of the LED lights, as they appear in the webcam output video
These video options are in a Windows PS3 webcamdevice driver/app called "CL-Eye Test"
as described in the Delanclip online manual here:
https://delanengineering.com/manual/
How can I adjust the background blackness and the LED light roundness on linux, where I don't have the "CL-Eye Test" device driver/calibration app? (Or should I try to run CL-Eye Test on linux using the wine windows emulation layer?)
Also, how do I set permission so I can run opentrack without using sudo, which saves my ini files under /root?
Thanks!
P.S. Below are the commands I used to install opentrack and the flightgear headtracker plugin. I am using Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
I don't have this
