Capture class problem
Sep 27th, 2008, 10:00pm  
Hi all

I'm planning on doing an artwork using a webcam and the Capture class. As a starting point I'm using code obtained from:

http://heylookmumnohands.wordpress.com/2007/11/25/webcam-application-processing/

My problem is that the project only runs once in a blue moon. Sometimes if I restart processing it runs first time without a problem and then might run once or twice after that, and then nothing.

Any ideas?

Processing = BETA 0135
Webcam = Logitech Quickcam 4000
OS = Windows Vista
QT version = 7.5

UPDATE: There's a way around this but it's not perfect - Including P3D as the mode in the size function e.g. size(640, 480, P3D); seems to work. Unfortunately this means that the smooth() function (and possibly more) can't be used. I tried using JAVA2D and P2D but they didn't work.

Does anyone know a different approach?
