The -003 version allows the recording and downloading +of sound clips from the camera, and allows a flash attachment. Otherwise, +it uses the same commands as the -001 version. Both versions support a +variety of SDRAM sizes and sensors, allowing for a maximum of 26 VGA or 20 +CIF pictures. The STV0680 supports either a serial or a usb interface, and +video is possible through the usb interface. + +The following cameras are known to work with this driver, although any +camera with Vendor/Product codes of 0553/0202 should work: + +Aiptek Pencam (various models) +Nisis QuickPix 2 +Radio Shack 'Kid's digital camera' (#60-1207) +At least one Trust Spycam model +Several other European brand models + +WHAT YOU NEED: + +- USB support +- VIDEO4LINUX support + +More information about USB support for linux can be found at: +http://www.linux-usb.org + + +MODULE OPTIONS: + +When the driver is compiled as a module, you can set a "swapRGB=1" +option, if necessary, for those applications that require it +(such as xawtv). However, the driver should detect and set this +automatically, so this option should not normally be used. + + +KNOWN PROBLEMS: + +The driver seems to work better with the usb-ohci than the usb-uhci host +controller driver. + +HELP: + +The latest info on this driver can be found at: +http://personal.clt.bellsouth.net/~kjsisson or at +http://stv0680-usb.sourceforge.net + +Any questions to me can be send to: kjsisson@bellsouth.net
