Hi Androidphan, I use Logitech Quickcam Connect Webcam whose raw pix format is JPEG.
I tried to change pixel format in the macro #define PIXEL_FORMAT V4L2_PIX_FMT_JPEG instead of YUYV. I also changed minimum width and height to 320x240 instead of 640x480. Now, i have one doubt where to change the size of the buffers, i have seen this framesize=width*heght*2 , here is the place i have to change or at other point. Can we do this kind of stuff, using VIDIOC_G_FMT get the format that hardware supports and set this using VIDIOC_S_FORMAT. Also, u are having functions GrabPreviewFrame and GrabJpegFrame where conversion of yuv to jpeg happens. Commenting out of conversion in above functions will work. i have seen in v4l2 cam applications using "fmt.fmt.pix.field = V4L2_FIELD_INTERLACED". Is this to be added in v4l2_camera patch.
