[Bug 1305306] Re: webcam is distorted
Daniel Holm, as per http://www.sony.co.uk/support/en/content/cnt-dwnl/SVP1321M2E/list#os1 an update to your BIOS is available (R1044V7). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.
For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.
Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
04f2:b3be [Sony VAIO SVP1321M2E] Webcam is distorted
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
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.
