Still for some applications you need to preload v4l1compat.so as described here:
http://hansdegoede.livejournal.com/3636.html

you need to install the libv4l package

for vlc for example you have to use the following command:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so vlc



OT: Isn't there a way to edit a comment?
