Upstream wants to confirm:
"Are we talking about video recording or video displaying? "

Further comments:
" If the reporter sees 100% cpu with just displaying I guess he's either using the wrong video sink, or xvideo doesn't work (gpu driver issue), or the webcam uses some strange format quite difficult to decode.

Cheese uses the video sink configured in gconf through gstreamer-properties.
If it is set to XVideo it uses hardware acceleration, XImage doesn't."
