Strange problem finding devices
Aug 23rd, 2007, 9:52am  
I am using Windows XP via Bootcamp on a MacBook and Processing 1025.  I have clean installed Quicktime 6.2 with Quicktime for Java and Quicktime Capture, along with WinVDIG 0.99.

This works fine, it uses the internal isight:

camera = new Capture(this, 320, 240, 12);

However if I try to list devices like so:
println(Capture.list());

I get this error:

Very strange! Any ideas?

I'm still very stuck on this.

Could it be anything to do with running through bootcamp?

Thanks

i would be surprised if the camera worked under boot camp. try downloading the hacktv application that comes with winvdig and see if that can see the camera. if it can, then it should work with processing.
