I'm using ekiga which uses libpt's v4l2 support. The libpt package depends on the libv4l package, which contains libv4l2, so it probably uses the v4l2 library. I could try another viewer for debugging, if this is of any use, but ekiga is what I care about. > Then, a bug in the pac7311 driver has been found yesterday. Did you > get/try this last one? Tip of my tree is 13436:f353aa2982f2, which seems to be the latest one. After rebooting my computer this morning, the cam worked for a few minutes without those color glitches. Then, after turning off the light in my room and turning it on again, the image started alternating quickly between light and dark. I tried to get rid of it with re-plugging the device, but this soon led to the original problem (red/green tints). I tried another reboot, but no luck. - Lars. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
