           Summary: spca5xx doesn't record with xawtv or streamer
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: linux
        AssignedTo: ben.collins at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: milky_cow_101 at yahoo.com
         QAContact: kernel-bugs at lists.ubuntu.com


the only problem I have is that recording the image of ZC301-2 seems to 
freeze up ubuntu or just not work, like from streamer:

user at ubuntu:~$      streamer -o foobar.avi
avi / video: 15 bit TrueColor (LE) / audio: none
ioctl: VIDIOCMCAPTURE(frame=0;height=144;width=176;format=6): Invalid 
argument
no way to get: 320x240 15 bit TrueColor (LE)
movie writer initialisation failed

Also, opening /dev/video0 in avidemux freezes ubuntu.  Xawtv says "error 
[init]" if I try to record from there.
