Hi Daniel,
	thanks for help, i have tried the code you have posted, but it does not works 
or i have not understand you correctly, i have compiled the code, i have tried 
directly with /dev/video (like your example) or changing it with /dev/video0 
(the video dev i am using), after compile it and execute it i launch the helix 
producer but still the same error.

webcontrol:~# gcc -o test_video test_video.c
test_video.c: In function 'main':
test_video.c:7: warning: return type of 'main' is not 'int'
webcontrol:~# ./test_video
webcontrol:~# producer -vc /dev/video0 -ad 128k -vp "0" -dt -vm sharp -o 
/tmp/test.rm
Helix DNA(TM) Producer 11.0 Build number: 11.0.0.2013
Info: Starting encode
Error: Could not set image size to 352x288 for color format I420 (15) 
(VIDIOCMCAPTURE: buffer 0)
Warning: Capture Buffer is empty at 455505251ms for last 61 times

do i am doing anything wrong?

Regards,
Miguel Angel.
