as far as I can tell, the JPEG images produced by this card are
JPEG/JFIF compatible. libjpeg can open them and if you grab a single
frame and save it to a file (unmodified), the GIMP (haven't tested much
other tools) will read it as a JPEG file with no problem. That's why I
chose JPEG rather than MJPG.

Ohwell, MJPG wouldn't be a problem. :-). As long as the thing is defined
somewhere.
