I applied it to a clone of your HG repository, and had to make a minor
change to get it to compile. I've attached the updated patch.
It looks like the read() from the card isn't reading entire frames ata a
time - I'm using a piece of test gear that I have to return in a couple

picture moving across the screen. I'll try and chase this, see whether
there's something obviously wrong.
