Switching the Video Camera
Apr 18th, 2009, 3:01pm  
I'm working on an application that reads in and displays video. I need to be able to switch to different cameras that are available. I can select an available device once, then switch to another one, but if I try to select a previously selected camera again, or one of the drivers that's not available I get the following error:

quicktime.std.StdQTException[QTJava:7.6.0g],-9405=couldntGetRequiredComponent,QT.vers:7608000
etc...

To make the switch I'm using the list() method then re-creating the Capture object like this:

video = new Capture(this, width, height,new_camera,15);

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I should add that the app freezes immediately after throwing the exception on my MBP, but doesn't freeze on a colleagues newer machine running Mac OS 10.5, although the error still occurs.
