zr364xx for Linux attempts to bring support under Linux for the Aiptek PocketDV 3300 in webcam mode (also known as "Maxell Maxcam PRO DV3").
All the code is still under developpement...
If you just want to get on your PC the pictures and movies on the camera, you need to use the usb-storage module.
Maybe this code can work for other JPEG/USB cams based on the Coach chips from Zoran? Possible chipsets are : ZR36430 (ZR36430BGC) and maybe ZR36431, ZR36440, ZR36442...
You can try the experience changing the vendor/product ID values (look at the source code).
You can get these values by looking at /var/log/messages when you plug your camera, or by typing : cat /proc/bus/usb/devices.
