  GStreamer | gst-plugins-base | Ver: HEAD CVS
           Summary: [v4lsrc] creates wrong caps on the source pad (width and
                    height range)
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: HEAD CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-base
        AssignedTo: gst...@li...
        ReportedBy: thi...@gm...
         QAContact: gst...@li...
     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


The v4lsrc sets the width and the height in the caps as a range between the min
and max resolution of the device. However this width and height can't be a
random set between this two values. but must be a fixed set of resolutions like
(174x144, 40x480)

In reverse caps negotiation the wrong caps can be selected and therefore crash
the v4l device.
