A prefered way would be to implement it in my userland usb_webcam
driver.
There is already a template file for quickcam.
Adding a driver for each webcam is not reasonable as they all have
different chips but share sometimes the CMOS sensor. Besides, handling
picture format convertion is much easier in userland. And you'll see
there is not much left in kernel land when you move all that code to
userland.
Of course that means extending the USB Kit to support isochronous.



In the README.txt wrote by you I found
- write isochronous code when USB Kit supports it
- add quickcam support (I have some code around) (requires iso)

and if I understand correctly the USBKit is the one under src/libs/usb,
right? USBRoster.cpp etc..

Do you think you can add the quickcam code you have around, and add the
isochronous support?
I think I can add isochronous support to the USBKit without too much
trouble.
