I is a Genius VideoCamMessenger, inside it a Microdia chip. lsusb Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0c45:602e Microdia just to satisfy curiosity why is the camara the problem?
because mine doesnt produce this effect ;)
Screenshot 2 looks ok in principle, but the first screenshot not so much. The order of the effects seems to matter a lot here. I get effects like in Screenshot2 with vertigotv ! edgetv, whereas edgetv ! vertigotv is probably more along the lines of what you would expect. The first screenshot looks like there's a format problem of some sorts. Do any of these pipelines reproduce this problem for you? $ gst-launch-0.10 v4l2src ! ffmpegcolorspace ! vertigotv ! edgetv ! ffmpegcolorspace ! videoscale ! ximagesink $ gst-launch-0.10 v4l2src ! ffmpegcolorspace ! edgetv ! vertigotv ! ffmpegcolorspace ! videoscale ! ximagesink Could you run cheese from a command line like this: $ GST_DEBUG_NO_COLOR=1 GST_DEBUG=*:4 cheese 2>dbg.log and then re-produce the problem in the first screenshot and then quite cheese and do $ bzip2 dbg.log and then attach the resulting log file?
Hi my web cam is v4l1 :( . So with a little modification I could see that you are right, the order does count, and what I spected to see from the combination of edge and vertigo was the opposite of what i got. But the "corruption" that happens as in screenshot1 only appears in cheese, and this is what seems broken from the output. So the bug is reproduced and attached dbg.log as requested.

niko, did you try $ gst-launch-0.10 v4lsrc ! ffmpegcolorspace ! vertigotv ! edgetv ! ffmpegcolorspace ! videoscale ! ximagesink $ gst-launch-0.10 v4lsrc ! ffmpegcolorspace ! edgetv ! vertigotv ! ffmpegcolorspace ! videoscale ! ximagesink like tim suggested?
Hi, yes i did, those were the modifications y made to the suggested comand. I agree the order is important and thought I was going to get "edge ! vertigo" but got "vertigo ! edge" y think in cheese you cannot choose the order(?). But the main reason for this bug report was not caused by the order its what you get in screenshot 1. I only got that using these effects together and the gst-launch command did not reproduce it. Is there a way to ask for a diferent resolution in gst-launch? I noticed cheese uses a higher resolution than gst-launch.
please paste the cheese -v output

There you go, cheesee output ;) Any ideas?
Hi I cant reproduce this anymore so, I am going to blame this on the webcam driver or gstreamer and close this one. Thanks a lot for your time and your excellent project. Saludos Niko
great to hear that! ;)
