multiple DV cameras OSX
Jul 5^th, 2006, 7:41am

Hi

I'm working on a project that uses two live cameras, and it works fine with a sony DV camera and an ISight camera, I specify DV Video for one and IIDC FireWire Video for the other.

But I can't get it to work with two DV cameras.

If I bring up the settings dialogue I can see two seperate cameras listed but when I select the other camera it doesn't change the source

I've tried everything I can think of including not specifying the device but I get always get the error

quicktime.std.StdQTException[QTJava:6.1.4g],-9405=couldntGetRequiredComponent,QT.vers:7118000
at quicktime.std.StdQTException.checkError(StdQTException.java:38)

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

I'm working on OSX if that makes a difference

(e.g. http://www.cycling74.com/twiki/bin/view/FAQs/JitterCameras) doesn't help but maybe you figured out something smart in the meantime best sascha
