Hello all,

As it is summer break and I find myself a small bit of free time, I was
considering writing an implementation to decode the frames from the webcams
using assembly (as an attempt to gain performance, as current
implementations provide low fps and drag on my Pentium M considerably).

However, I am very new to field and have a few questions if you all wouldn't
mind helping me with.

Do these (i have a Logitech QuickCam for Notebooks Pro) webcams generate
data strictly in MJPEG format? or do they output MJPEG and/or YUV/YUYV?
If the formats are streamed differently how are they controlled? (ie: get
YUV/YUYV output, or get MJPEG output from camera)

I assume regardless of the camera's output format, they must be in rgb24 to
be displayed on the output, is that correct?

I would appreciate any information you have and any suggestions you may also
have.


Thank you for your time.
Tanner Ezell
