The answer was responsive to the question, a couple of links to software
which might serve. I would think your going off about it was further
off-topic, it certainly didn't help the O.P. any. When someone ends a
question with "please help" I would assume that any answer would be
better than "we're working on it." Answering an on-topic question with a
short list of links is hardly "spamming" or even advertising, it's
called being polite and helpful.
I would rather run commercial software on Linux that open source on
Windows, thanks, if those are the choices.
After several months of looking I have yet to find any video app that a
typical office worker can use. Something no more complex than xawtv,
which has been running fine on FC4 and FC6 for these folks. I would
certainly consider a commercial solution rather than have them go back
to the dark side of the force and Windows-7.
i've followed the advice of marcus in the past
and that is why for over a year i had a completely useless piece of hardware
in the end the "real" developers here sorted the problem out
this list is for people who run or want to run the drivers at linuxtv.org
so no, i don't think i was off-topic
he constantly spams the list here with his closed source commercial solution
just about my only job on this list is to counter his bull
with kind regards
