Of course there are quite a few changes and a few consequencies we like to inform you about: 1. There is no more decoding or decompression in kernelspace. This improves performance but for many applications you will now have to use "libv4l", a userspace decompression layer developed for GSPCAv2. A short explanation is in the updated README. 2. The driver now offers JPEG compression. This can especially help on low-bandwidth connections like USB 1.0 and 1.1. 3. The driver now handles image sensor and bridge chip (SN9C20X) independently. This makes adding devices much easier and we already support some more webcam models. If yours hasn't been supported up until now - please check if it works now. To update your local git repository use this command: $ git pull --force Note: The "--force" is necessary because the update required some non-fast forward changes. If you encounter any problems please notify us. Of course a simple "$ git clone ..." will also work. So - everyone is invited to take a sharp look at the changes, post patches, add new features, solve bugs, make comments and of course have fun with their webcam. Good luck, GWaterErrrrr, push -f was not good choice. Don't do it in the future. Just merge branches.Regards Vasily
