What just it says: The device doesn't support overlay (direct transfer
of the video from the grabber to the gfx card).  That is true for all
usb cams, so the message is harmless.  xawtv will go capture frames
and blit them to the screen instead of using overlay.

Maybe, if the application in question expects overlay support is available ...
