FLAGS_RETRY_VIDIOCSYNC 1 This bit allows to retry failed
VIDIOCSYNC ioctls without failing.
Will work with xawtv, will not
with xrealproducer. Default is
not set.
FLAGS_MONOCHROME 2 Activates monochrome (b/w) mode.
FLAGS_DISPLAY_HINTS 4 Shows colored pixels which have
magic meaning to developers.
FLAGS_OVERLAY_STATS 8 Shows tiny numbers on screen,
useful only for debugging.
FLAGS_FORCE_TESTPATTERN 16 Shows blue screen with numbers.
FLAGS_SEPARATE_FRAMES 32 Shows each frame separately, as
it was received from the camera.
Default (not set) is to mix the
preceding frame in to compensate
for occasional loss of Isoc data
on high frame rates.
FLAGS_CLEAN_FRAMES 64 Forces "cleanup" of each frame
prior to use; relevant only if
FLAGS_SEPARATE_FRAMES is set.
Default is not to clean frames,
this is a little faster but may
produce flicker if frame rate is
too high and Isoc data gets lost.
FLAGS_NO_DECODING 128 This flag turns the video stream
decoder off, and dumps the raw
Isoc data from the camera into
the reading process. Useful to
developers, but not to users.

framerate This setting controls frame rate of the camera. This is
an approximate setting (in terms of "worst" ... "best")
because camera changes frame rate depending on amount
of light available. Setting 0 is slowest, 6 is fastest.
Beware - fast settings are very demanding and may not
work well with all video sizes. Be conservative.

hue_correction This highly optional setting allows to adjust the
hue of the image in a way slightly different from
what usual "hue" control does. Both controls affect
YUV colorspace: regular "hue" control adjusts only
U component, and this "hue_correction" option similarly
adjusts only V component. However usually it is enough
to tweak only U or V to compensate for colored light or
color temperature; this option simply allows more
complicated correction when and if it is necessary.

init_brightness These settings specify _initial_ values which will be
init_contrast used to set up the camera. If your V4L application has
init_color its own controls to adjust the picture then these
init_hue controls will be used too. These options allow you to
preconfigure the camera when it gets connected, before
any V4L application connects to it. Good for webcams.

lighting This option selects one of three hardware-defined
photosensitivity settings of the camera. 0=bright light,
1=Medium (default), 2=Low light. This setting affects
frame rate: the dimmer the lighting the lower the frame
rate (because longer exposition time is needed). The
Model 2 cameras allow values more than 2 for this option,
thus enabling extremely high sensitivity at cost of frame
rate, color saturation and imaging sensor noise.

sharpness This option controls smoothing (noise reduction)
made by camera. Setting 0 is most smooth, setting 6
is most sharp. Be aware that CMOS sensor used in the
camera is pretty noisy, so if you choose 6 you will
be greeted with "snowy" image. Default is 4. Model 2
cameras do not support this feature.

The 352x288 is the native size of the Model 1 sensor
array, so it's the best resolution the camera can
yield. The best resolution of Model 2 is 176x144, and
larger images are produced by stretching the bitmap.
Model 3 has sensor with 640x480 grid, and it works too,
but the frame rate will be exceptionally low (1-2 FPS);
it may be still OK for some applications, like security.

support faster frame rate. Default is 352x288.
