You are not the only one to report problems with the Winnov Videum Card.
I think that the video part of PWLib that gnomemeeting uses to open, close
and capture the card should be rewritten and use code from xawtv. That should
give compatibility with all cards that work with xawtv...

Perhaps I'll work on this one day, but I still have many things I want
to see implemented into GM before that...
