 Replying to [comment:3 amb at gedanken.demon.co.uk]:
 > I had the same problem with V4L1 and kernel 2.6.25 and the patch removed
 that problem.

 interlaced fields would appear out of place several frames later than they
 should have been displayed.  This caused frequent jumps in the picture
 (although they only showed up clearly on fast moving images).

 With kernel version 2.6.27 this patch works fine for me and the problems I
 had with 2.6.25 are no longer present.
