[Gambas-user] Using a Webcam with MediaPlayer

I recently posted some sample code on Gambas.One for capturing the images coming from a webcam.

https://forum.gambas.one/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=723

Another poster brought up the gb.v4l control as an alternative.  I replied that it is officially deprecated.

Now, on the surface at least, the gb.v4l control is much more capable.  Are there techniques (methods or maybe URL parameters) for adjusting webcam settings through the MediaPlayer control?  Things like image size and frame rate.

Is GStreamer the official replacement of gb.v4l or is there yet another approach?

Thanks
Ced
