camera settings
Feb 8th, 2006, 6:28am  
Hi

I can get processing to see and capture from my two cameras one DV and one isight but I cannot get the capture settings dialogue to open.

The app crashes with the apple error
processing.core.PApplet quit unexpectedly

And in the text area of the Processing environment's console I get

quicktime.std.StdQTException[QTJava:6.1.3b1],-9402=cantDoThatInCurrentMode,QT.vers:7038000

I'm Running OSX 10.4.2 and quicktime 7.0.3 on a dual 2.3 ghz G5

Any answers?

Cheers
Rhian

hey hey!

i had the same issue and fixed it with a really dirty workaround in the processing source code.
however, for me it works.
you can download the file from http://www.superduper.org/video.zip

just delete the video folder from apps/processing/libraries/
and unpack that file there.

let me know if it works for you...
hansi.

This still doesn't seem to work in presentation mode. I want to adjust my settings after I CNTRL-SHIFT-R  but no go - so the camera is in an infinate focus loop. Anyone know a solution for this?

Sorry, one other question: Can the camera settings such as focus, and brightness be set within processing code or as a function of the video capture library? I cannot seem to drag the sliders to accurate enough values, and the manual entry boxes do not update the camera settings either in the dialogue. Did anyone find a workaround to this?
