thomas, you added more patch in past. Can you look into this?
This patch should fix this bug, but can you cleanup xawtv patches first? I do not think we need all them, but I do not use xawtv, so I could be wrong.

I think I looked into xawtv once or twice. There is basically no upstream development at all, but people still use it, so there's tons of patches.

afaik, there's no other simple cli apps that can do simple stuffs like taking a snapshot from webcam.
that's why it's still used a lot.

As it's a dead package, I think we can apply whatever patch we please. However, someone really should consider forking it.

i'm no programmer.
i dont even know about patch stuffs.

patch anything you please.. as long as it works.
Comment by Thomas Bächler (brain0) - Friday, 12 March 2010, 10:24 GMT
Andrea, I just looked at this patch, I think you can go ahead and apply it.

Jan, what do you think? What should we do with xawtv?
Comment by Thomas Dziedzic (tomd123) - Sunday, 04 July 2010, 02:27 GMT
decision?
Comment by Jan de Groot (JGC) - Monday, 04 July 2011, 14:14 GMT
AFAIK this patch is not needed when using libjpeg-turbo. Libjpeg-turbo ignores the fancy scaling stuff, so it should not segfault anymore.

It works here, any update?
