Hi Paulo, Thanks, with guvcview I was able to make it somehow better, this program is very well done.
But I still am nowhere near 30 fps (I get around 6 fps with low light), and there is no single set of settings that allows me to have decent framerates at low light and normal light conditions, so I have to adjust it manually each time (the auto mode is not good). Thanks anyways.
