That's right. The Quickcam Ultra Vision might have slightly different 
controls. I have no such model here, so I can't test the patch. Maybe Martin 
could have a look.

Martin, by the way, is it necessary to put the webcam in bayer mode to disable 
the auto-exposure ? Or would the auto-exposure mode control do the job 
alone ?

Cheers,

Laurent Pinchart
