[Bug 593648] [NEW] gspca_pac207: Poor video quality of webcam Genius Eye 310

[vpodobaev]

Public bug reported:

Hello!
I have webcam Genius Eye 310. 
The problem is that the video quality of this cam in Ubuntu Lucid is much worse than in Windows. Especially when there's low light in the room. When I use Skype from Windows - I see my webcam picture is self-adjusting even in low light and I get good picture. In Linux - there's no appropriate adjusting, and the image quality is very poor.
The driver of gspca_pac207 is used. Maybe this driver lacks some of cam-adjusting functionality?

Thank you!

Best regards, Vladimir
