I've found some posts in the forums that suggest a problem with
deinterlacing+v4l2 in kernels 2.6

http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=6212&highlight=v4l+size
http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=7863&highlight=v4l+deinterlace

There may be more in the mailing list archives, I haven't had a chance
to go through them yet. I'll also go through v4l2 documentation later
on today when I get a chance.
