I've noticed a mplayer's issue on OpenBSD. With different desktop machines and usb webcams I've successfully tested the webcam with the command:
$ mplayer tv:// But in all cases, when you press 'q' mplayer hangs for some seconds before quitting. Any idea of why this happens? Walter -- PLEASE, LET'S PRESERVE GOOD EMAIL PRACTICES - Use plain text (no HTML please). - Separate paragraphs with empty lines. - Use hard wrapped lines at no more than 72 columns. - Avoid top-posting. - You'll find the above easy to accomplish by using a decent email client (i.e. Thunderbird, Claws mail, Mutt).
