You are right, and obviously it exists at least two different devices of the same name, and this is confusing when trying to buy a cam known by its name on the supported list. Maybe a a warning should be issued to the supported device list to prevent a mistake. > > > Could you please read http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/faq and apply the > instructions to find out if your camera is UVC compatible ?

Cam Video IM Pro, which I suppose to be a working UVC cam. And there was no means to know the vendor-id:device-id before buying the object and trying to install it. A bad experience. I shall try to exchange this cam with a real UVC one at the reailer's.
