[Ekiga-list] Fullscreen

[Philippe Laliberte]

Hello,

Well I do not get a distorted image with gspca . I tried it with both an 
old Logictec Express and a Pixart. That is with v4l not v4l2. The 
resolution is pretty bad with both, but I am trying to understand why. 
Might be simply that they are piece of junk. I found one in the trash, 
the other paid 12£ for it.

Cheers,
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 046d:0928 Logitech, Inc. Quickcam Express
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 093a:2468 Pixart Imaging, Inc. Easy Snap Snake 
Eye WebCam

P.S. Chris, you can make your signature as an attachment, it is more 
convivial for those that do not have a GPG/PGP plugin. Alternatively you 
can get for free a formal Internet personal certificate. It is accepted 
by most email browsers, which is better because they can encrypt back 
easily any answer they might have.
