Typical application would be for example to capture from a webcam, apply some filter to it, and finally pulish it to another application reading from a video device. I see there are at least three distinct projects which provides a video for loopback device: * video4linux loopback device/vloopback: http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Motion/VideoFourLinuxLoopbackDevice Seems to be unmaintained, also if I'm not wrong it only supports video4linux and not video4linux 2 API. * video4linux2 virtual device http://sourceforge.net/projects/v4l2vd/ This should be the successor of vloopback, unfortunately it seem not to work with linux 2.6.26: https://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=2897804&forum_id=579262 and also seems a little unmaintained. * http://code.google.com/p/v4l2loopback/ I don't know if there are applications using it, just read about it in this ML. I wonder if someone can express an opinion on these projects, for example to tell their current status / usability.
