My skype finally gets tested and it works. (Cannot think why it shouldn't :) )
Regarding the inclusion of the patch, I don't know how to put it, but it seems the way gspca handle the size of video has its own reason, it tries to provide a full range of dimensions from SCIF to VGA with every possible size in between, but usually webcams support only limited number of sizes natively, so gspca will crop the image from the next available (bigger) native size if the current one is not supported by the camera. Luc's patch simply disabled all the sizes which are not natively supported, which I am ok with. However, I feel a compromised solution would be to still provide the full range of picture sizes like what it does now (cause this way makes sure the interfaces across different cameras are unified), while give the applications that use this driver hints whether the size they are asking for is a cropped version or a native one. (Maybe it already has such a feature just I don't know) On Tue, Jun 3, 2008 at 4:13 PM, mister_pink <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I just tested.
