Hello

I have been trying to get vic-2.8ucl-1.1.3 to work with my USB webcamII. 

Vic detects my webcam but the capture doesn't work. I see a green screen.
The output is:
	ioctl VIDIOMCAPTURE: Paramètre invalide
	ioctl VIDIOCSYNC: Paramètre invalide                         

It seems that vic try to grab with the format VIDEO_PALETTE_YUV422.
(In file  grabber-video4linux.cpp : vid_mmap.format = VIDEO_PALETTE_YUV422)

And the cpia driver work with a different palette
( In file cpia.c :
	case VIDIOCMCAPTURE:
	{
		if (vm.format != VIDEO_PALETTE_RGB24)
		return -EINVAL;
		.....
)

Is there a solution ?

Thanks
