@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? ;) -- cheese doesn't work with my webcam (Philips PCVC740K ToUcam Pro) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/282473 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
