[gst-devel] v4l2 device wrongly captured

I have a NTSC camera connected to a BT878 capture device. I configure it
with:
$ v4l2-ctl -s ntsc

Then test it with:
$ gst-launch v4l2src ! xvimagesink
resulting in an image as the one attached (gstreamer_output.jpg).

However, using:
$ mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:norm=0
works perfectly (mplayer_output.jpg).

Where might be the problem?

I'm running Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 with GStreamer's PPA enabled. I also attached
result of:
$ gst-launch -v --gst-debug=v4l2:5 v4l2src device=/dev/video0 num-buffers=1
! xvimagesink
in case it's useful.

Another hint: I *believe* that there was no problem with the older GStreamer
packages, but can't tell for sure.

you didn't, please let me know so I can upload them to 4shared, megaupload,
