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. Advocates: Ben Hutchings anyone else?
