Hi,

sorry if this is not the correct mail list.

I am not sure if this is a bug, if someone can help me ?

I got a Creative Webcam Pro PD1030.

Drivers are loaded :
# dmesg |grep ov511

I try for testing
cat /dev/video > video.avi

I got :

I also got problems to use webcam with skype etc.
Can you help find the origin of the bug ?

Thanks very much.
