Subject: (Relative) Success with a Chicony CNF7045 cam
To: [email protected]


Hello uvc devs.
I'd just like to report the good news that the Chicony CNF7045 webcam (ID
04f2:b062) on my el-cheapo Packard-Bell laptop
works just fine with the current UVC driver.

Downside is, it doesn't actually work with any 'production' software out
there. :/
After some tinkering I figured out it's because it's a YUV cam, which it
doesn't seem anybody supports for whatever reason.
Once I'd figured that out, luvcview did work with the "-f yuv" option. (If I
may say so, it seems a bit lazy that it insists on hard-coded defaults
rather than doing a VIDIOC_G_FMT and first attempting to use the native
format.)

Would I be correct in thinking the fastest way to get more apps running with
this thing would be to fix Sane?

Anyway, I've attached the outputs from lsusb -v and v4l-info in case
anyone's interested on the details of this device.
