Dear List,
I have had this problem ever since I bought my laptop. :(
I can't find _any_ program I could use to record video
using my laptops integrated webcam.. neither mencoder
nor ffmpeg works..

My webcam is the following (from dmesg):
-------------
input: USB 2.0 Camera
as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:0b.1/usb2/2-2/2-2.1/2-2.1:1.0/input/input16

.. on the other hand, skype and kopete are able to use
my webcam without any problems. Is anyone aware of a bugfix
for mplayer or some other program that would do the trick?
Thanks in advance,
Sampsa
