Description Lassi Väätämöinen 2010-03-14 14:39:42 UTC
Version:           1.0.0 (using 4.4.1 (KDE 4.4.1) "release 225", KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop / openSUSE_11.2)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.31.12-0.1-desktop

Currently  when Preferences dialog is started, the web camera is activated. At least on my system, the enabled web camera makes preferences dialog somewhat sluggish, so I propose that the camera preview could be activated in the web cam dialog explicitly via clicking a button (similar to e.g. Skype beta). Or activated only when the web cam preferences section is viewed.
