Hello,

I have on a 10-CURRENT with ports from 1st of November:

MPlayer SVN-r35933-snapshot-4.6.3 (C) 2000-2013 MPlayer Team
webcamd-3.11.0.2
pwcview-1.4.1_4

The cam of my netbook, a CNF7129, works fine with Skype and with
pwcview. How I could use mplayer to work with this and record the video
stream? Thanks in advance.

I have googled around and the hints I found, for example:

mplayer -cache 128 -tv driver=v4l:width=640:height=480:outfmt=i420 -vc rawi420 -vo xv tv://

only says: 
MPlayer SVN-r35933-snapshot-4.6.3 (C) 2000-2013 MPlayer Team

Playing tv://.
Cache fill:  0.00% (0 bytes)   

TV file format detected.
No such driver: v4l
