Hans,

The Linux V4L support is only a system call translation layer
to allow Linux V4L apps to access FreeBSD V4L drivers.  In other
words, the FreeBSD driver must offer a VL4 support itself.

I looked for webcamd on freshports.org but nothing comes up.
I am not familiar with the drivers in it.  Do they include V4L
support?
