Ok so I finally looked at this myself: (patch against webcamd svn which already has some missing drivers added so it doesn't work as is for the version currently in ports; some of the -DCONFIG_foo I added may not be relevant and three drivers didn't build.) Patch also at: http://people.freebsd.org/~nox/tmp/webcamd-moretuners.patch See further up in the quoted parts of this message about how to build webcamd svn...
