@Valerio, I don't really think this is a gstreamer bug since both skype and xawtv users reported the very same issue (see duplicates of this bug). I don't know why it still works with vlc (someone said it works with camorama too but I think it's using v4l1 api) but it's likely that this issue com

@Andres, no this bug really is a pwc specific one and it's not cheese related at all. Bug #290506 is uvcvideo specific and maybe it has something to do with cheese but I'm still not sure. -- cheese doesn't work with my webcam (Philips PCVC740K ToUcam Pro) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/282473
