I am trying to make webcam work with skype. webcamd-0.1.14 creates functioning device /dev/video0 that works in mplayer and pwcview. Skype complained that some VIDIOCAP flag is missing. So I applied the patch: I patched kernel with this patch: linux_v4l.diff from http://leidinger.net/FreeBSD/linuxolator/ and copied over compat/linux/linux_videodev.h from the trunk. Skype now says there is vidio0 device, but video test fails and image isn't passed to the peers. Did you succeed with video in skype? Yuri
