thanks for the bugreport! could you try to see if the camera works with "gstreamer-properties"?
Comment 2 Davide Bertola 2007-09-19 10:13:08 UTC 
I have the same problem
and the answer is NO, the webcam does not work with gstreamer-properties either.

It's an iSight (macbook) camera.
Comment 3 daniel g. siegel 2007-09-19 10:17:18 UTC 
i suppose you have tried your isight with the 2.6.22 kernel. on that, isight doesnt work with gstreamer, but it does with ekiga. i have the same problem here, so im staying on the 2.6.20 kernel.
Comment 4 daniel g. siegel 2007-09-21 15:41:36 UTC 
this is a gstreamer related bug
Comment 5 Elrik 2007-10-01 09:43:40 UTC 
I think it's a duplicated bug (and confirmed) with #475559
