hi board,

i try to make a fire-i firewire cam running with the processing opencv library. if a use a cheap logitech usb webcam everything is running. wether with the original fire-i driver nor the cmu driver i can get the blobs example running.

Error while starting capture : device 0
Drag mouse inside sketch window to change threshold
Press space bar to record background image

OpenCV could not define source dimensions.

Exception in thread "Animation Thread" java.lang.NullPointerException

i already tried if i can change device to device 1. no success. is there any way to list the avaibable devices like with the serial port libray? or are there any other hints? like should i better use jmyron for capture the image?
