I've just installed a Logitech C310 webcam on my Ubuntu Oneiric machine, and I've got several problems. When I use cheese, if I set it to use the higher resolutions, the picture contain shadows and has distorted colors. 1280x960 Only with lower resolutions the picture looks okay. 800x448
The above photos were taken with cheese.



In addition, the camera's internal microphone didn't always work. When using it through pulseaudio, the sounds were fast and with high pitch. When using it directly through alsa it sounded fine.



Any ideas?



EDIT: I moved the sound part to a new question.

This solution was helpful for me: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cheese/+bug/838739/comments/16




sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libv4l
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libv4l-0 libv4l-dev


In my case it solved all my problems (cheese, gst-launch-0.10) except
one. Since I'm running a 64 bits system, I keep having a problem with
Skype, even after updating the i386 libraries (sudo apt-get install
libv4l-0:i386). However, with the help of v4l2ucp you can change the
saturation pattern and get a much more reasonable output.
