Package: guvcview
Version: 1.7.3-2
Severity: normal
guvcview on a new laptop reports
VIDIOC_G_COMP:: Inappropriate ioctl for device
and then what looks like the first frame of video is then rendered very
slowly. Parts of the image are then updated also very slowly (seconds).
However, cheese works properly.
But vlc suffers from similar problems, although it does not seem to
report the same VIDIOC_G_COMP error (but I may not have found the right
debug message).
I suppose this suggests that the error may be coming from libv4l-0
perhaps. I have not (yet) tried gdb to see whether I can collect more
useful information.
