Camera != Capture

Just noticed that the website still has the old name for the Camera class, which should be replaced with Capture, in the reference.

Reference pages that should be updated are here:
http://processing.org/reference/libraries/video/index.html

I guess you did find the substitute name for Camera after all Wink

One minor issue too is that considering the function names changed also, it should be noted that the transition wasn't from CameraEvent() to CaptureEvent() but to captureEvent() (mind the caps).

That little minor C was causing a huge confusion in my head a few minutes ago and was the difference between a blank canvas and a stream captured from my DV cam because there was no camera event catching method.

So casey, I know you have this reference-updating procedure semi-automated, but make sure the function name is correct on your new reference too.

So, is "Camera" a viable class name for the (viewport) camera interface I'm working on, or should I avoid it? I remember there was some discussion earlier about the collision with the video capture interface, but apparently that object has changed to "Capture". Is there a "Camera" within core that I need to avoid colliding with as well?

Camera is a fine name for your viewport interface. We changed the name of the previous Camera class to Capture specifically for this reason.
