Well, as I said, my patch is for Pixart based cameras, that's what I
have (Genius e-Messenger 112). I made it to fix the same problem as you
have.

So, it is obvious that you have a camera of a different class and it
encodes frames using JPEG. I am not familiar with JPEG compression nor
I have a camera that uses it, so I can't make an accurate fix.

Anyway I've made a dirty hack. Please, try the attached patch instead of
the previous one. I do not like it, but it should work, I hope.
