Hello,

I have the same problem with another Vimicro cam. The
id is  0ac8:303b sensor, the sensor detected is
HV7131R(c)

The cam works great indoors, but under daylight or
some indoor not-so-strong-light I only get a full
white image. I have tried with the module parameter
lightfreq without result. I get the following error
message in dmesg:

[spca5xx_set_light_freq:1932] Sensor currently not
support light frequency banding filters.

So I guess that the problem is due to this feature.

Is there any hope that this filters will be ever
implemented? 

Best

Luis
