           Summary: GStreamer not working with Quickcam Messenger Plus
                    with 2.6.31 kernel
    Classification: Desktop
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.10.24
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: Normal
         Component: don't know

Quickcam Messenger Plus (ID 046d:08f6 Logitech, Inc. Quickcam Messenger Plus)
is properly recognized as of Linux kernel version 2.6.31 .The /dev/video0 is
properly created.

gstreamer-properties test with a Video 4 linux 2 plugin does not create any
video output but does not report any error.
gst-launch gives this output:

petar at aurora:~$ gst-launch v4l2src device="/dev/video0"
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
Pipeline is live and does not need PREROLL ...
Setting pipeline to PLAYING ...
New clock: GstSystemClock
WARNING: from element /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstV4l2Src:v4l2src0: Got
unexpected frame size of 116640 instead of 117120.
Additional debug info:
gstv4l2src.c(1318): gst_v4l2src_get_mmap ():
/GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstV4l2Src:v4l2src0
WARNING: from element /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstV4l2Src:v4l2src0: Got
unexpected frame size of 116640 instead of 117120.

Additional information:

Quickcam Messenger Plus DID NOT work with the previous versions of the Linux
kernels. The webcamera was recognized but an nonfunctional driver was installed
and no /dev/video0 was ever created. This changed with Linux kernel 2.6.31. I
would like to emphasize that the camera is recognized and now works properly
with Skype 2.0.0.72 and Ekiga 3.2.0 so the problem must be somewhere in
GStreamer.
