[Gambas-user] v4l - can not open device -solved

[Steven James Drinnan]

Had another look, looks like /dev/video is no longer created in v4l so
the default now is /dev/video0.

I know you did not make this component. But does need to be updated to
recognize v4l2 which is now the default in most major distributions.

Many thanks for your patience.
