Title:
  04f2:b3be [Sony VAIO SVP1321M2E] Webcam is distorted

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Hi,

  My new Vaio Pro 13 has a webcam from Chicony which doesn't work
  properly. Using Cheese I can se myself for like a second, then the
  stream ends. In Google Hangouts my image contains static and is
  distorted (see attachement).

  Using streamer to take a snapshot the image looks fine in 640x480, but
  if I want it to take a HD image in 1280x720 I get an error and the
  output file looks as when in an hangout.
