-Zoran 364xx based USB webcam module version 0.72
+Zoran 364xx based USB webcam module
+===================================
+
site: http://royale.zerezo.com/zr364xx/
+
mail: royale@zerezo.com
-introduction:
-This brings support under Linux for the Aiptek PocketDV 3300 in webcam mode.
-If you just want to get on your PC the pictures and movies on the camera, you should use the usb-storage module instead.
-The driver works with several other cameras in webcam mode (see the list below).
-Maybe this code can work for other JPEG/USB cams based on the Coach chips from Zoran?
-Possible chipsets are : ZR36430 (ZR36430BGC) and maybe ZR36431, ZR36440, ZR36442...
-You can try the experience changing the vendor/product ID values (look at the source code).
-You can get these values by looking at /var/log/messages when you plug your camera, or by typing : cat /proc/bus/usb/devices.
-If you manage to use your cam with this code, you can send me a mail (royale@zerezo.com) with the name of your cam and a patch if needed.
-This is a beta release of the driver.
-Since version 0.70, this driver is only compatible with V4L2 API and 2.6.x kernels.
-If you need V4L1 or 2.4x kernels support, please use an older version, but the code is not maintained anymore.
-Good luck!
