Hello,
I am currently fiddling some around with capturing pictures from a very cheap 
webcam.
Unfortunately that webcam uses the rare codec pac207.

Does a decoder (as source) or a description of the codec exist?
Or can you please give a hint where to search?

thanks in regard
Ronny

Well you can use libv4l, and that will do the decoding for you, or you can
lift the decoding code from there:
