Hey Cluggers,
Time for a new toy so I thought I'd pick up a webcam on payday. I need one like
I need a hole in the head, but I feel the need to flash that slick penguin card
in my wallet! And it's my turn to support our sponsors.
Just looking for some feedback on brands that work well with linux. Or potential
issues I should be aware of.
Thanks kindly,
Doug
Doug,
Although it doesn't provide all the possible features, I successfully have an early USB revision of the QuickCam Pro 4000 running with CamStream [http://www.smcc.demon.nl/camstream/].
There are some useful features that do work great:
• Graphical user interface [written in Qt]
• Change image size, brightness, contrast, etc. on the fly.
• Save images in a variety of formats.
• Include a timestamp in the image and/or the saved filename.
• Uploading images to a server with FTP.
• Take regular snapshots, or any moment you decide._______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca
