Just for everyone's information; I've been caught up in other issues here, so 
I'm unlikely to get onto changing videobuf to vb2 in this code in the next 
week or so.

However, if someone else had just enough free time to convert the existing 
patch for me, I can free up enough time to test with our application and with 
GStreamer, to confirm that the conversion works adequately.
