It is part of something bigger, but I forgot what it is. Maybe here: http://www.smcc.demon.nl/camstream/ If you search Google you will find plenty of v4l software, and most of it will be simple. If you look at complex software (xawtv etc.) then it will be more difficult to understand how it works. > Can someone let me know where i can have full information abot V4l > API... full documentation The fullest of all full documentations is in linux/Documentation/video4linux/ directory on your computer. If it is not full enough ... well, too bad. There were few magazine articles that described v4l a little bit better, but not much better. Fortunately, v4l is not too complex, and after you get it you don't really need more than a printed header file as a reference. Thanks, Dmitri
