Hi Jean-Francois I applied the patch you supplied, but the result wasn't as expected. The video now cycles between the attached image and total blackness every couple of seconds (i.e. bright, black, bright, black, ...). I should note that my curtains were actually closed and that I had auto-exposure enabled in V4L2-UCP. The image remained the same when I manually set the exposure to 800, but at least it wasn't going black every couple of seconds anymore. Of course, the problem disappeared when I reverted to the original GSPCA v2.15.7 code. Let me know if you want me to email you any of the relevant debugging output.
