title: Raspberry Pi / Octopi USB Camera Setup: What does this mean and how do I use it?
body: <p>I'm very new to Raspberry Pi, and have no prior notable experience with Linux so this is all new to me... </p>
  
  <p>Octoprint is a 3D printer spooler that you can run on your raspberry pi. One of the features on Octoprint is the ability to setup a USB camera to view either still images or a stream of your print. </p>
  
  <p>I am using the Octopi prepackaged Octoprint image.</p>
  
  <p>Octoprint's github contains the following info referring to my USB camera. But I have no idea how to implement this. </p>

  <p>I'm guessing this is an easy command that I enter via console, but I've winged few commands with no luck. Can someone shed some light on how I use this? Like I said I'm an absolute beginner with the pi...</p>
  
  <p>Any help is greatly appreciated!</p>
