Hi Doug,

I tried your vic release out earlier today, must say, the controls actually 
work! The controls used to be quite a risk to use because it normally makes vic 
unresponsive and thus takes the AG toolkit along with it. But now I can use the 
V4L2 controls and not have to worry about my AG client becoming unresponsive.

As to the mysterious freezing of one of the vic screens, I am still faced with 
that problem. However, it now occurs after a much longer period of time, 
usually at about 15 mins or so, and once that happens the vic goes back to the 
usual green screen. So that problem still continue's to mystify me.

It's a drop in replacement for the existing vic executable, you don't need
to do anything other than replace the existing vics.

If you get a green screen or something doesn't work, send me the output of
vic when it is run from the command-line line.

Cheers,
Doug.
