Comment 93 for bug 290506

Actually this did not help me, may be because I have a little bit different
problem

I'm able to get cheese to work, as well as gstreamer-properties test, but
with a long delay. It take about a minute for picture to start showing in
gstreamer-properties test, and even more on cheese. However after that
period, camera works flawlessly.

I'm getting several messages in /var/log/messages like these as video starts
to appear:

Nov 13 19:39:13 sevinc-laptop kernel: [ 497.941102] uvcvideo: device Acer
Crystal Eye webcam requested null bandwidth, defaulting to lowest.
Nov 13 19:39:29 sevinc-laptop kernel: [ 514.821494] uvcvideo: device Acer
Crystal Eye webcam requested null bandwidth, defaulting to lowest.

As I mentioned above, programs like ekiga, kopete, skype, luvcview works
flawlessly.

P.S. Messages above also appear once luvcvideo and other non-gstreamer apps
started.
