This is not really a bug in libv4l, but more of a problem with error

You are right, application is quite rough and doesn't have any tolerance.
But why such bad bytes appear in the first place? I think they are sent
by the

what do they mean.
That is not very likely as they are in the middle of the jpeg data stream
(special bytes would normally be in the header or footer of each frame).
Most likely the cause is a not 100% usb connection, or some subtle linux
driver bug causing this.
