Title:
04f2:b3be [Sony VAIO SVP13215PXB] Webcam is distorted
Status in cheese package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Start cheese on the current Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Beta. 640x480 works
correctly. 1280x720 video fails with "There was an error playing video
from the webcam"
I suspect the problem is in libjpeg or video4linux, but cannot be
sure. I am happy to compile anything and I will reply to this issue
generally same day.
