The "EIO not returned in VIDIOC_DQBUF" patch certainly stops the errors, but I'm not sure it is a good solution. A/V sync in Videocamera (look in the Garage) and with a standard GStreamer pipeline is pretty dismal; I think it has actually gotten worse with this patch. I don't know what a better solution would be here, though... I'll keep playing around; I still think there's hope.

As for the V4L1 patch: how do I use it? There's no v4l1 device created (usually /dev/video) and /dev/video0 is not recognized as a v4l device by VLC 0.8.6...

Sigh. Thanks for the kernel anyway!

Hmm, thanks for the report, I'll have to boot into a kernel with that patch removed and see if it's slower too :/

No idea, sorry, V4l1 is enabled, I think it's up to the driver which V4l it reports itself as.

BTW: If you do end up flashing another kernel to remove the "EIO not returned in VIDIOC_DQBUF" patch, I recommend flashing fanoush's rotation kernel. That has the fixed rotation and the SD high speed without any extreme stuff like my kernel.
