[Bug 282473] Re: cheese doesn't work with my webcam (Philips PCVC740K ToUcam Pro)

[Valerio De Carolis]

@bojo42,
i have some different experience with the V4L2, pwc and the logitech quickcam pro...I'm using the 8.10 Ibex release for x86_64 architectures.

Running VLC with these parameters will produce the right output (the webcam video etc etc):
v4l2:// :v4l2-dev=/dev/video0 :v4l2-adev= :v4l2-standard=0 :v4l2-dev="/dev/video0" :v4l2-width=640 :v4l2-height=480 :v4l2-fps=30

So I think VLC is capable to use v4l2 correctly (probably VLC doesn't
invoke it through gstreamer as the other apps like cheese, skype do???).

However under Hardy (x86_64 version) the webcam worked well with Skype.

Any ideas? ;)
