I have a cheap webcam (ID 093a:262a Pixart Imaging, Inc.), and Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit, Skype 2.1.0.81, and lib32v4l-0 version 0.6.0-1. I start skype with LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so, and the video image is garbled. I believe the problem is that the webcam image starts off at 480x640 and skype asks for YU12 at 320x240 for a test image. This results in v4lconvert_rotate90() being called to rotate the image, and then v4lconvert_reduceandcrop_yuv420() being called to down-size the image from 640x480 to 320x240. Unfortunately v4lconvert_reduceandcrop_yuv420() relies on src_fmt->fmt.pix.bytesperline for the source image, and that is still 480 (should be 640, since the image has been rotated).
This fixes it for me:

I didn't look closely at the latest source, so it is possible this already fixed some other way.
