I've tested it by plugging in the sq905 camera, verifying the

plugging in the pac207 and using up arrow to restart v4l2ucp and svv so I
think I've eliminated most finger trouble possibilities. The pac207 is id
093a:2460 so not the problem id. I'll have to investigate more thoroughly
later.
Does the pac207 perhaps have a / in its "card" string (see v4l-info output)
? if so try out this patch:

No, no / in the device name.

I've tried enabling the logging option in libv4l while running v4l2-ctl -l to
list the controls present on each camera but I can't see any significant
looking differences in the log other than the the fact the sq905 seems to get
many more unsuccessful VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL requests. Unless you have a better
idea my next step would be to extend the logging to include the parameters on
the VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL ioctls, however my gut feel is that it is related the
camera having controls that have CIDs both lower and higher than the ones
libv4l adds and libv4l doesn't do anything with the driver returned values if
V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL is set.


Ah, you are using v4l2-ctl, not v4l2ucp, and that uses V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL
control enumeration. My code doesn't handle V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL (which is
a bug). I'm not sure when I'll have time to fix this. Patches welcome, or in
the mean time use v4l2ucp to play with the controls.

Hans
