The port "graphics/spcaview" supports many USB video camera, but it seems that only static or quasi-static image capture has been supported. I cannot fetch the source package of the new port "multimedia/pwcbsd" to look in. From "http://www.saillard.org/linux/pwc/" I know that pwc-10.0.12-rc1 (for Linux) now supports: { USB_DEVICE(0x0471, 0x0302) }, /* Philips models */ { USB_DEVICE(0x0471, 0x0303) }, { USB_DEVICE(0x0471, 0x0304) }, { USB_DEVICE(0x0471, 0x0307) }, { USB_DEVICE(0x0471, 0x0308) }, { USB_DEVICE(0x0471, 0x030C) }, { USB_DEVICE(0x0471, 0x0310) }, { USB_DEVICE(0x0471, 0x0311) }, /* Philips ToUcam PRO II */ { USB_DEVICE(0x0471, 0x0312) }, { USB_DEVICE(0x0471, 0x0313) }, /* the 'new' 720K */ { USB_DEVICE(0x0471, 0x0329) }, /* Philips SPC 900NC PC Camera */ { USB_DEVICE(0x069A, 0x0001) }, /* Askey */ { USB_DEVICE(0x046D, 0x08B0) }, /* Logitech QuickCam Pro 3000 */ { USB_DEVICE(0x046D, 0x08B1) }, /* Logitech QuickCam Notebook Pro */ { USB_DEVICE(0x046D, 0x08B2) }, /* Logitech QuickCam Pro 4000 */ { USB_DEVICE(0x046D, 0x08B3) }, /* Logitech QuickCam Zoom (old model) */ { USB_DEVICE(0x046D, 0x08B4) }, /* Logitech QuickCam Zoom (new model) */ { USB_DEVICE(0x046D, 0x08B5) }, /* Logitech QuickCam Orbit/Sphere */ { USB_DEVICE(0x046D, 0x08B6) }, /* Logitech (reserved) */ { USB_DEVICE(0x046D, 0x08B7) }, /* Logitech (reserved) */ { USB_DEVICE(0x046D, 0x08B8) }, /* Logitech (reserved) */ { USB_DEVICE(0x055D, 0x9000) }, /* Samsung MPC-C10 */ { USB_DEVICE(0x055D, 0x9001) }, /* Samsung MPC-C30 */ { USB_DEVICE(0x055D, 0x9002) }, /* Samsung SNC-35E (Ver3.0) */ { USB_DEVICE(0x041E, 0x400C) }, /* Creative Webcam 5 */ { USB_DEVICE(0x041E, 0x4011) }, /* Creative Webcam Pro Ex */ { USB_DEVICE(0x04CC, 0x8116) }, /* Afina Eye */ { USB_DEVICE(0x06BE, 0x8116) }, /* new Afina Eye */ { USB_DEVICE(0x0d81, 0x1910) }, /* Visionite */ { USB_DEVICE(0x0d81, 0x1900) }, ------------------------------------------------------------------------ From Beijing, China eculp@encontacto.net wrote: > Quoting mag@intron.ac: > >> Unfortunately, as I know, now FreeBSD supports only BrookTree 848/878 >> PCI video capture card.
