(Frame from FinePix F601 Zoom, PC CAM mode, Linux)

Status:

For developers only (alpha-quality) - only works in latest 2.5/2.6 Linux kernel.
Tested only with FinePix F601 Zoom and F401 Zoom digital cameras; other FinePix cameras might not work.
I can grab several frames from camera and display each one as an 320x240 24-bit JPEG image. I can also disconnect and re-connect camera and everything works as expected.

Done: USB protocol (also user-land tool using libusb and usbfs).
Developing: V4L2 interface under Linux 2.5.x/2.6.x.
To do: Patch/plug-in for xawtv to support MJPEG streams.

Download:

Development version: <soon>.
Stable version: <not available>.
