Comment 4 for bug 197659

I can confirm this. Works in gstreamer-properties; v4l and I can see myself on my cam. When I open Cheese it just shows the Test Pattern.

I've tried your idea, Byron, but it has made no change. :(

"gst-launch-0.10 v4lsrc ! ffmpegcolorspace ! ximagesink ." works

chris@chrislaptop:~$ gst-launch-0.10 v4lsrc ! ffmpegcolorspace ! ximagesink .
