I have a Chicony 2.0 USB Camera (04f2:b008) that *almost* works perfectly.
Right now, I can get it to work perfectly in both luvsview and Empathy.
Unfortunately, the image is too dark to be useful when the light frequency
filter is off. Using luvsview, I can easily change this value to 50 or 60Hz
with its GUI.

Is there a way to implement the same fix for Empathy? The chat client
doesn't currently provide a way to change this setting, and I'm not
experienced enough to write a piece of software that's able to, if that's
even possible. On Windows, I had a configuration tool that could update the
webcam settings while I was video chatting, but I don't see something
similar for Linux.

In short, is there a way to change the light frequency filter settings in a
program I didn't write?

Thanks so much!
