Video4Linux version 1 (V4L1) was obsoleted in the kernel by version 2
(V4L2) some years ago and newer video capture drivers do not support
V4L1. Applications should all be using V4L2. There is a library (libv4l)
that can aid in converting applications that were written for V4L1.
Fedora has patched a number of applications to use this.
