video quality
« on: Oct 7th, 2003, 7:43pm »

Hi,
 
I've been playing about with real time video effects using my bog standard logitech web cam - its all working fine.  I've now tried to hook up my DV cam to the app, but can't seem to get any sort of decent quality out of it.  the quality is always bad.  I can get decent quality out of the cam in flash, and in ImageMixer - the software that came with the camera.
 
Is this something to do with the winDVIG software? as that shows the same poor quality as in p5.
 
any ideas?
 
Cheers
 
Guy

i think you can use any device that is supported by the DVIG software, i'll experiment monday with a sony camera through firewire, so if it works i'll tell you.
