I think your best bet is still UVC + H.264, as that's what the market is
moving to. Any other compressed format (except for MJPEG) will likely be
proprietary.

As you correctly mention, H.264 support isn't available yet in the UVC
driver. Patches are welcome ;-)
So... do I understand it correctly that with the current hw/sw stack, my
original requirements can not be satisfied?
Not that I'm aware of.
OK, thank you for confirming that. In this case, I will just give this up, for now.

In that case, let's try with reduced requirements. What if I give up HD
resolution and H264?

Is there a camera that can provide a HW-compressed 480p video stream, in
MPEG-2 or something like that?
I don't think so. Once again, unless you can work with MJPEG, your best bet is
UVC and H.264. But you will need to write the code (or find someone who can
write it).

I could definitely write the code, but I wish to spend my (severely limited) time and resources on other projects.

Thank you for your help anyway:

    Kristof
