newbie video question
Mar 28^th, 2006, 11:23pm

hi all,

i'm totally new to processing, and i'm having problems getting video feed from a sony handycam via usb port.

i can't seem to get the processing video examples to recognize the camera.

the error:

quicktime.std.StdQTException[QTJava:6.1.3g],-9405=couldntGetRequiredComponent,QT.vers:6528000

at quicktime.std.StdQTException.checkError(StdQTException.java:38)

java.lang.RuntimeException: No capture could be found, or the VDIG is not installed correctly.

at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:552)

i've read all faqs (multiple times) on this, degraded to quicktime version 6, looked through the discussions. i still can't seem to get the camera recognized. i'm running on a mac with os x version 10.3.9 is this my problem?

any help would be great.

many thanks,
chris
