Public bug reported: Binary package hint: vlc
Trying to capture video from a webcam, I found that vlc alsa:// will play sound, and vlc v4l2:// will play video. Getting both together however does not seem to work. Various tutorials suggest vlc v4l2:// --input-slave alsa:// however, that gives only video. Similarly, vlc alsa:// --input-slave v4l2:// only plays audio. Specifying the alsa device, alsa://hw:0,0 does not change the behavior, neither does recording to disk instead of immediately playing. Googling led me to a forum post, http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=62027 describing the same problem, however, the oss fallback is oblolete with maverick, if I'm not mistaken.
