Package: sane-utils
Version: 1.0.19~cvs20070730-1
Severity: normal

scanimage fails to capture an image from a video stream provided by the kernel
module 'pwc' for Philips web cams. However, I can watch the camera's video 
stream
with xawtv.
scanimage works as expected with the other video sources present in my system
(modules quickcam, bttv and cx8800).

device
device `v4l:/dev/video0' is a Noname Hauppauge Nova-T DVB-T virtual device
