Hi All,

I'm new to the video libraries and I'm having problems getting the frame rate right for the movies I'm creating.

I would like to capture a video from my webcam with "Capture" and the save it using "MovieMaker." It seems straight forward enough but when I playback the video after saving them, it is always plays back at a much faster speed.  I would just like to be able to play it back at a normal speed.  I've tried fiddling with frame rate speed for Capture, MovieMaker, and the draw method, but nothing has really worked like i've wanted.

I'll post the code I'm using below.  Also, I am using my built in Apple iSight.  Thanks for any help I get, I appreciate it.

import processing.video.*;

MovieMaker mm; //the moviemaker
Capture myCapture; //isight

void setup() {
 
 size(320, 240);

 myCapture = new Capture(this, width,height,30);
 
 mm = new MovieMaker(this, width, height, "mymovie.mov",30,MovieMaker.H263, MovieMaker.HIGH);
 // 30 fps, h263, high quality

}

void captureEvent(Capture myCapture) {
 myCapture.read();
}

void draw() {
 image(myCapture,0,0);
 // Add window’s pixels to movie
 mm.addFrame();
}

void keyPressed() {
 if (key == ' ') {
   mm.finish();
   exit();
 }
}

Cool, thanks Fry.  Thats exactly it.  I appreciate the reply, you've saved me alot of time!

I'm guessing there is no nice way around this read/write issue? Please let me know if there is.

Thanks again!

Alistair
