Hi again, since i didn't get any answer i maybe emailing the wrong
mailing list.

Can you give me a way to contact the ov534 dev team ? or maybe i should
open a bug on some v4l bug tracker or ov534 bug tracker ?

If someone can tell me where the better place to report my problem or
get a solution is, it would be pretty cool ;)

thank you in advance !

looking forward to hearing from you.
