FrameRateProblem OpenCV (Read 546 times)
FrameRateProblem OpenCV
Apr 27th, 2010, 7:57am
 
Hello,
I have a question regarding the use of OpenCV.
A simple program that does nothing else than aquiring the video image (from a webcam) through the function read(), goes with a frameRate of 14-15 fps (under Windows). The same program under Mac gives 28-30 fps.
What makes this big difference?
Is there something I could do to augment the framerate?
Maybe If I put the read() etc. into a parallel Thread?

Thanks for any ideas!
