I've been trying to compile the example code for V4L2 capturing but it just won't seem to work.
This is the url: http://v4l2spec.bytesex.org/v4l2spec/capture.c
I've got everything needed as far as I know to compile. The error is:
jonface@x64:~/Desktop$ gcc -o cap capture.c
In file included from capture.c:25:

If I try this:

I'm really not sure what is going on but I would be interested to hear if anyone else can get it to compile. V4L is working as far as I know (webcam is working).
Thanks.
