> Sorry for taking so long to get back to this bug. Please do not keep us waiting again, it is really does not work, and as I can understand it does not work on wide range of devices, because it failed with two web cam I have both on Debian Stable and Testing.

As you can see from backtrace, everything is inside libav files. Moreover, VLC works out of box with all these web cams // If you like, I can leave this cam plugged into my development computer for couple of weeks and give shell access to you, but inform me quick if you need this otherwise I will try to build older versions of avconv, there to make that damn thing work. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
