Well, there was Vanessa Ezekowitz's Quickscan 64 project.
Go to

I should have gotten in on this discussion when it was going on back in 2008. :-)

Another thing I was working on was a plugin for Godot to capture images from the camera at 320x200, 4-bit greyscale. Once an image was captured, you could use any of Godot's other plugins to filter and eventually save the image in whatever ways and formats you wanted, according to Godot's capabilities. It was stable as far as I remember, I just never got to put in the live feedback inlay. The three samples on my website were captured with my plugin and immediately saved out with the later version of Godot's GIF saver.

I later used my PC to scale them up by 2x (without any smoothing) for use on my website.

I no longer have the plugin or the source code for it unfortunately, as both were lost in a hard drive crash. I may have sent those files to Arndt Dettke as a "backup", so I've sent him an email.

There is! Just have a look here:
http://www.c64-wiki.de/index.php/GoDot#Videodigitizer

(It's German text, but the links there lead to English sites). In fact, it's
Vanessa's, so you already know it. You should know the other GoDot drivers,
too, so have a look at the above URL.
