The goal was, if I remember well, to have rotation implemented in a completely 
transparent way for userspace applications. The applications will, of course, 
have to use libv4l(2).

libv4l(2) should detect that the device requires rotation (based on the USB 
VID:PID) and rotate the image in software if hardware rotation isn't 
supported.

What camera are you using ? Please post the USB descriptors (retrieved with 
'lsusb -v' using usbutils 0.72 or newer - 0.73+ preferred).

Best regards,
