[PD] unable to open pdp_v4l webcam video stream

That's a huge amount of latency. Do you see that sort of latency if you 
use the webcam in guvcview?

For a cheap webcam with low latency I've had great luck with the Sony 
ps3eye. It works out of the box on Linux (ubuntu at least) but if you 
compile your own driver for it you can get even better performance:
