[Qemu-devel] [Bug 645524] [NEW] No picture from USB webcam (kvm 0.13-rc1)

[Jan Willamowius]

Public bug reported:

I export my Linux webcam to KVM using the switches "-usb -usbdevice
host:046d:0929". The XP guest sees the webcam and the drivers install,
but the camera only shows a black image. When I open the camera in
Windows Explorer, it says "0 images" and a black image, while on a real
XP, it says "1 image" and shows the video from the camera. Same problem
with different webcams. Same cameras work fine on a native XP install.
