Thanks for the hint. I'll try this.
If you are right, then the documentation is outdated:

WEBCAMD(8)              FreeBSD System Manager's Manual             WEBCAMD(8)

*skip*

     webcamd requires the cuse4bsd(3) kernel module. To load the driver as a
     module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

            cuse4bsd_load="YES"

*skip*

     webcamd was written by Hans Petter Selasky hselasky@freebsd.org.
     This man page was written by Dru Lavigne dru@freebsd.org.

Strange that there is no version in the last line.

Also:

# man 4 cuse
No manual entry for cuse

Did you mean cuse(3)?

Many thanks

Anton
