It does not, indeed. It had been decided that a v4l driver should only produce the stream in one format, preferrably closest to the native device format (palette). A driver must not convert palettes - this is difficult to do in kernel space, awkward to do without FPU, makes the driver much more complicated and crash-prone, and pollutes the kernel space with similar-but-different pieces of conversion code (in each driver). The ibmcam driver produces BGR24 - this is almost the native format in many IBM/Xirlink cameras. It is gnomemeeting's responsibility to take one of standard formats and make use of it. xawtv, for example, does exactly that. > Please check your kernel driver documentation in order to determine > which Palette is supported.

Couple of years ago I wrote a patch for voxilla (openH.323 client) to accept BGR24, and the patch is still somewhere on http://www.linux-usb.org. > I also have an ibmcam but it doesnt like the videodevX setup.. :( I don't understand that, sorry. You'd better be more specific :-) Dmitri -- 119. I will not attempt to kill the hero by placing a venomous creature in his room.
