It works with luvcview when I select YUV format. When I try default (MJPEG afaik) it gives: Unable to set format: 22 Init v4L2 failed !! exit fatal With YUV it works satisfactory for video (selfadjusting to light conditions etc.). I haven't tried to use audio. 2 of them together saturate somehow 1 USB2.0 hub. I'll look into that in a few days.
