I don't have a spigot but thought I should note it. Looks pretty good from the receiving standpoint. Stock 2.8 did too, so I'm not surprised. Nice to have 16 bit support. Qcam works pretty good. I have a loopback session going right now. Primary gripe is that 4 bit mode appears broke. The whitebalance doesn't appear to range properly, ie it turns bright white on both ends of the scale except for a certain point near the "auto" button. I don't know if this is vic's problem or the qcam driver's. I'm running 2.1.5-RELEASE with qcam-driver v1.1 (I think). 6 bit works fine (but it sure does drag on the system every second or so!). Only problem I see here is that the screen blacks out every so often for a frame. Again, don't know if this is vic's or qcam0's fault. For a performance benchmark, on small frame size & 6bits, I get about 3.9fps. On normal size, it drops to about 1.5fps.
