Le projekthi ijolise ekunikeni ujongano olulula lokubamba kunye nokubukela ividiyo kwizixhobo ze-v4l2, ngokugxininisa ngokukodwa kumqhubi we-linux uvc. Iprojekthi ibonelela ngojongano lolawulo olusekwe kwi-Gtk3 okanye kwi-Qt5, kuxhomekeke kubumbeko bokwakha. Inketho ye-console kuphela iyafumaneka. Ungasebenzisa kwakhona i-guvcview inefestile yokulawula kuphela, (ukusuka kwi-console: guvcview -control_only), oku kuvumela ulawulo lomfanekiso kwezinye ii-apps, ezifana ne-ekiga, itshizi, i-mplayer, i-skype, ... Audio. Inkxaso yomsindo ye-Guvcview inokukhethwa kwii-API ezimbini: i-portaudio okanye i-pulseaudio (ukuba iyafumaneka) Zonke ii-interfaces (ALSA, OSD, JACK, ...) ezixhaswa yi-portaudio kufuneka zifumaneke kwi-guvcview. Qiniseka nje ukuba i-portaudio idityanisiwe kunye nojongano olufunwayo olwenziweyo.
