increase webcam framerate

[MalleRIM]

Hi,
I bought a Hercules Classix Silver webcam (gspca_sonixj driver from kernel). It's supposed to have 30 fps. Well, many cams obviously have a lower framerate on linux, so does mine.
But then I was playing around with mplayer and I saw this:

it looks like the processing can't keep up with all the frames...

The only real solution is to make the code more efficient to move the data quicker.

Ok, thanks for the information. So I guess I'll be buying a more linux compliant Webcam soon.
