My webcam works with ekiga but not with gstreamer... is it unsupported? It doesn't work with gstreamer-properties when I hit the Test button, "Video for Linux (v4l): Could not negotiate format". Tested with the build-in web camera of Sony Vaio VGN-FE41Z on Fedora 8. # lsusb Bus 001 Device 003: ID 05ca:1836 Ricoh Co., Ltd # lsmod|grep r5u870 r5u870 61508 0 video_buf 22469 1 r5u870 videodev 28097 1 r5u870 v4l2_common 18625 2 r5u870,videodev v4l1_compat 15941 2 r5u870,videodev
anyone?
Could you do this: $ GST_DEBUG=*v4l*:5 gst-launch-0.10 v4lsrc num-buffers=10 ! ffmpegcolorspace ! ximagesink 2>dbg.log $ gzip dbg.log and attach the dbg.log.gz file?

i've downloaded and installed the latest r5u870 module (version 0.11.0 http://wiki.mediati.org/R5u870#Download ) and it works fine, no crashes whatsoever.
