My images from my Intel Easy PC Camera are coming up blue because color
correction is turned on by default.

When I use camorama, my Intel Easy PC Camera (CS110) supports an option
to turn off color correction. I don't know what technique it uses to do
this, but it turns the blue off and the image looks like it should.

What's the command-line technique to tell xawtv or streamer tools to
turn off color correction?

The problem is due to some web cams send out BGR instead of RGB. Go
figure. You have to use a switch on the command line and GUI tools
sometimes to show the video in RGB. Thanks to the developer of Camorama
for helping me understand this.
