Comment 40 for bug 984603

I have the same problem.

It freezes in both: Skype and Cheese. Sometimes it freezes after one second, the other times after 5-10 seconds.
I noticed that if reduce resolution to 176x144 in Cheese then it does not freeze and works fine!
But when Skype starts my cam it uses 640x480 so it freezes and I don't know how to reduce the resolution it in this case.
Anyway, there's some bug in it.

Environment Info: Ubuntu Gnome 15.04 3.19.0-28-generic
Webcam: A4Tech.

If anyone knows (or can guess) the solution please help!
