Logitech QuickCam Pro 5000 on FC6




I have the Pro 5000 which will work with the following command:

ffmpeg -vd /dev/video0 -ad /dev/dsp -r 10 -s 352x288 video_tes
t.avi

It records video just fine, no sound though. My problem is I cannot get this to work with mplayer. I would like to be able to see the video live. Here are some details:

Has anyone gotten this camera working on FC6?

Thank-You

Check out this two links I found using a quick search on google. Mentions like newer versions are broken due to patent issues or something. Not sure if it appplies to your setup.
