The second version used electronics manufactured by Orbicam and is only supported by the Portsdown 4.This version responds the the Linux lsusb command withīus 001 Device 00x: ID 046d:082d Logitech, Inc. The original version, marketed from first introduction until early 2019, included a hardware H264 encoder, and is supported for DATV transmissions by both the Portsdown 2020 and the Portsdown 4.Only the oldest version is supported by the Portsdown 2020, but all 3 versions are supported by the Portsdown 4. The recommended WebCam is the Logitech C920, but this has 3 versions with identical external hardware, but with different elctronics and drivers. Webcams have proved difficult to support on the Portsdown as manufacturers spend a lot of effort in developing Windows drivers (for their major market), but very little effort in developing Linux drivers as it does not bring them much revenue.
