V4L2 has support for compressed streams, and for harddisk recording it is 
really convenient - unfortunately not for video conferencing :-(

On the other hand, newer versions of the ivtv driver seem to be capable of raw 
yuv output. Try the following:

v4l-info /dev/video0 | bzip2 > /tmp/videoformats.txt.bz2

and send this file to the list.
