Hi,

Kopete correctly detects and uses the v4l TV card I have on my system... problem is that I *don't want* kopete to use that device as "webcam", because it sets up that device according to the kopete configuration at kopete start, messing up the running instance of tvtime I may have (my tv card has several inputs : composite and tuner, and I'm using both)...

So please could a "do not use any v4l device" option be implemented ?
Thanks

Dear user, unfortunately Kopete is no longer maintained.

Please migrate to another solution, e.g. for Jabber a possibility is Kaidan, for Matrix a candidate is NeoChat.
