Package: gstreamer0.10-plugins-base
Version: 0.10.26-1
Severity: normal

Since an update in Squeeze a couple of days ago all gstreamer-based apps has
stopped working with my webcam.
When trying f.ex. running the test in gstreamer-properties the following
lines are observed in dmesg:

[4837593.237443] pwc: isoc_init() submit_urb 0 failed with error -28
[4837593.237449] pwc: isoc_init() submit_urb 1 failed with error -28

This is the lsusb output for the cam:

Bus 003 Device 005: ID 046d:08b4 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Zoom

If I use LD_PRELOAD to set v4l compat library, gstreamer-properties can show
the video when using the v4l plugin, like this:

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so gstreamer-properties

Other applications not using gstreamer, such as Camorama works without issues.
