The message comes out of pwcview.c:

        ...
        if(ioctl(fd,VIDIOCGPICT,&vp) == -1) {
                perror("Failed to get current picture info");
                exit(1);
        }
        vp.palette = VIDEO_PALETTE_YUV420P;
        if(ioctl(fd,VIDIOCSPICT,&vp) == -1) {
                perror("Failed to set palette to YUV420P");
                exit(1);
        }
        ...


# fgrep VIDEO_PALETTE_YUV420P *.h
videodev.h:#define VIDEO_PALETTE_YUV420P        15      /* YUV 4:2:0 Planar */

Does it make sense to just comment out this ioctl(2) in pwcview.c?
