You'll probably want to reduce its features to a minimum. Maybe you're better off compiling it from source yourself, circumventing portage. You'll want support for v4l(2) and jpeg. OTOH, there's VLC. This may be a good bet, too. It's specifically designed to do this kind of job. -hwh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
