.Sh BUGS
|
|
.Nm qcamcontrol
|
|
does not enforce a proper aspect ratio for x y sizes.
|
|
In practice, standard picture sizes are 320x240 and 180x160 and all smaller
|
|
sizes that maintain a similar aspect ratio.
|
|
Also, the camera is notoriously finicky until you get just the right
|
|
combination of white-balance, contrast, and brightness. Improper values
|
|
will return all-black or all-white pictures.
