+Zoran 364xx based USB webcam module
+===================================

+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+
+This brings support under Linux for the Aiptek PocketDV 3300 in webcam
+mode. If you just want to get on your PC the pictures and movies on the
+camera, you should use the usb-storage module instead.
+
+The driver works with several other cameras in webcam mode (see the list
+below).
+
+Maybe this code can work for other JPEG/USB cams based on the Coach
+chips from Zoran?
+
+Possible chipsets are : ZR36430 (ZR36430BGC) and
+maybe ZR36431, ZR36440, ZR36442...
+
+You can try the experience changing the vendor/product ID values (look
+at the source code).
+
+You can get these values by looking at /var/log/messages when you plug
+your camera, or by typing : cat /proc/bus/usb/devices.
+
+If you manage to use your cam with this code, you can send me a mail
+(royale@zerezo.com) with the name of your cam and a patch if needed.
+
+This is a beta release of the driver. Since version 0.70, this driver is
+only compatible with V4L2 API and 2.6.x kernels. If you need V4L1 or
+2.4x kernels support, please use an older version, but the code is not
+maintained anymore. Good luck!
+
+Install
+-------
+
+In order to use this driver, you must compile it with your kernel.
+
+Location: Device Drivers -> Multimedia devices -> Video For Linux -> Video Capture Adapters -> V4L USB devices
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+modprobe zr364xx debug=X mode=Y
+
+- debug : set to 1 to enable verbose debug messages
+- mode : 0 = 320x240, 1 = 160x120, 2 = 640x480
+
+You can then use the camera with V4L2 compatible applications, for
+example Ekiga.
+
+To capture a single image, try this: dd if=/dev/video0 of=test.jpg bs=1M
+count=1
