<h2><a name='sect2' href='#toc2'>Description</a></h2>
These functions
grab single video frames from various devices. Which of these functions
work depends upon how your VIPS has been configured and compiled, and your
platform. As a result, they are far from portable ... you want a layer on top
of these functions. 
<p> <a href='im_video_v4l1.3.html'><b>im_video_v4l1(3)</b></a>
 grabs a frame using Video4Linux. It
grabs a 24-bit RGB colour image, at the maximum resolution your card allows.
 
<p> <b>device</b> should typically be "/dev/video". <b>channel</b> selects the channel to
acquire: usually 0 is TV, and 1 is composite video. <b>brightness,</b> <b>colour,</b>
<b>contrast </b> and <b>hue </b> set grab parameters. Each should be in the range (0 -
32768). 32768 is usually the value you want. <b>ngrabs</b> sets the number of frames
the card should average. Higher values are slower, but typically less noisy
(and slightly softer). 
<p> 
<h2><a name='sect3' href='#toc3'>Return Value</a></h2>
All functions return 0 on success and
-1 on error. <p>
