jMicro is a java free software designed for children to use computer microscope with Linux. With JMicro you can take photos, take planned photo and create slideshow video from them. You can also interact with the principal controls of Video 4 Linux and for some microscope (e.g QX3 and QX5) turn on/off the lamps.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How can I access the Control Settings using the normal user?

You can access the Control Settings using the ALT+C shortcut.

  • When reaching the main window the program crashes with an error similar to 'Problematic frame: C [libjpeg.so.8] jpeg_suppress_tables'. What can I do?

We found that using the OpenJDK Java version this error might occour. To solve install the OracleSDK java implementation.
