I already tried a bit of copy and pasting in pdp (with breaking
compression-less v4l support, as it's just for me for now), but I
don't really find my way around in PDP yet. Some thing I encountered:
I'm not sure, where I need to do all this, probably in the
pdp_v4l_bang function?  Also I don't know, what kind of data pdp
expects to get in the end, that is, what format should the image be in
and do I need to set headers and so on. I really don't know my way
around pdp yet. :(

So far I'm always getting libjpeg errors about "unknown markers" in
the stream, it tries to decode...

Ciao
