Bug#733094: uvcdynctrl still filling the disk
Guvcview functions perfectly without uvcdynctrl. uvcdynctrl just adds some exotic uvc ctrls for older logitech cameras, like a led ctrl. The recommend can be droped without any problem. Regards.

Bug#733094: uvcdynctrl still filling the disk
Guvcview doesn't depend on uvcdynctrl it just recommends it. I've fixed uvcdynctrl upstream but haven't push a new deb package because due to some uvc driver changes it became mostly irrelevant. Also I think new uvc devices expose the controls correctly, so there is no real need for uvcdynctrl.

Argh! I wasn't aware of those timings.
In any case the new release should eventually go into unstable (after
the fix to 0.2.4).

I have no problem with this, I think it will also be faster.

Bug#713548: libwebcam: FTBFS: libwebcam.c:2097:8: error: 'V4L2_CID_HCENTER' undeclared (first use in this function)
Nobuhiro Hi,
I've commited the patch to git.
I'm preparing a new release (0.2.3), it should be available today and
it will include this patch and some other changes that have been in
git for some time now.
I also noticed that debian still has guvcview 1.7.0, the latest
release is 1.7.1 and among other things it fixes a major bug in the
avi container (opendml indexes weren't beeing produced correctly),
this bug affected all avi files larger than 1GB.
Regards,
Paulo
