hmm, But in gridflow when running the camera-help.pd , it mentions the need for either a tv source or it mentions: for webcams you need to have a pwc module loaded.
Yeah it still says that. I don't recall who wrote that, but the doc is wrong and was always wrong, because PWC came after QC-USB and we used both drivers "at the same time" for a while... I last tried QC-USB as recently as 2008, with an old Lego Mindstorm camera. AFAIK, QC-USB was always supported since the day it started working, and that was a while before we even knew what PWC was.
if there is a way to use v4l2 (which enables use of uvc cams) is it stable and safe?
I've already said all that I know.
Please stay on the forums, it may help you. I say that because you often reply in private, and it's not really appropriate, for most cases where people start posting in public.
