I would try extracting a JPEG header from one of the files captured by
the camera in stand alone mode (either a JPEG still or MJPEG file), and
put that header together with the image data from the USB capture.  It
may not look perfect, but hopefully you will get something you
recognize.

Attached was Theodore's first attempt of such a procedure with a header
extracted from a standalone image file from my Jeilin based camera and
USB snoop data from the same camera.  It wasn't perfect, but it was
recognizable.


I did look at the image data file Jean-Francois provided from your
usbsnoop logs.  To my eye the data looks like it is Huffman coded
(indicating JPEG).  Maybe I'm just seeing what I want to see.


Regards,
Andy
