Patrick,
Can you give the driver at
https://github.com/ericperko/uvc_cam a try? It
should be able to change parameters and you ought to see a difference (I
know I've seen a difference using parameters such as exposure). It does have
some basic dynamic_reconfigure support that you ought to be able to use to
play with it and see results more or less live.
If it works, perhaps Ken and I can work to merge some of the functionality
into one good UVC driver, since both are derived from Morgan Quigley's
driver.
