I've spent all day trying to figure out how to rename the webcam I made using this tutorial. It shows up as UVC Camera on my Windows 11 PC and I want to change what the name of it is. I can't figure out how to. The only place I found "UVC Camera" mentioned was in /sys/kernel/config/usb_gadget/g1/functions/function_name and some other directory within usb_gadget/ but those files seem to not be editable. I've gone through the uvc_gadget's repo and can't find a mention of "UVC Camera". Is my PC just choosing to name it that?

I changed this from the script on the tutorial hoping it would change the name but it did not.

  • CONFIGFS="/sys/kernel/config"
  • GADGET="$CONFIGFS/usb_gadget"
  • VID="0x05ac"
  • PID="0xdead"
  • SERIAL="0123456789"
  • MANUF="Apple Pi"
  • PRODUCT="PiSight"
  • BOARD=$(strings /proc/device-tree/model)
  • UDC=\ls /sys/class/udc

The original project shows how they have it show as "PiSight" on the host computer and I could swear it mentioned something specific that needed to be done to achieve this but I can't seem to find it now. The changes above I also got from the original project.

I am very new to all of this so I'm sorry if I left out any info or broke etiquette, please let me know if I did.

EDIT: This is a Windows issue, shows up as PiSight on Macbook.
