title: V4L2 patch for Android usb webcam
body: <p>I have been trying to get a USB webcam working on my Acer A500 using <a href="https://bitbucket.org/neuralassembly/simplewebcam" rel="nofollow">https://bitbucket.org/neuralassembly/simplewebcam</a> as a guide.</p>
  
  <p>According to the config file on my device it meets all the requirements and the app runs but I still cannot get it to work.</p>
  
  <p>I have found a V4L2 patch here: <a href="http://code.google.com/p/android-m912/downloads/detail?name=v4l2_camera_v2.patch" rel="nofollow">http://code.google.com/p/android-m912/downloads/detail?name=v4l2_camera_v2.patch</a> but I do not know what to do with it.</p>
  
  <p>I would appreciate anyone who could help me compile/install this patch.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
  
  <p>Paul </p>
