Sort of.  The buffer size is determined by the current video format at

(320x240xRGB24) for most v4l applications, because nobody calls
VIDIOCSWIN before VIDIOCGMBUF ...


  Interesting.  Should I call VIDIOCSWIN before VIDIOCGMBUF ?

According to the strict letter of the law (/usr/src/linux/Documentation/video4linux/API.html): Yes.

Due to historically bttv-only apps: No.
