Hello list,

The above two cameras, which have the well known usb bandwidth bug under Linux don't seem to display the same problems under Windows. I've tried them under Windows Vista and Windows 7 32bit. I've managed to display a LifeCam Studio and LifeCam Cinema at the same time through separate instances of VLC all the way to 1920x1080 for LifeCam Studio and 1280x720 for the LifeCam Cinema - which I believe are the maximum video resolutions for both cameras. I've forced VLC on 25fps - and the Cinema seems to do that. However, looking at the footage from the Studio at maximum resolution - it looks more like 5fps.

However, what all the above means is that these cameras don't seem to suffer from the usb bandwidth bug under Windows. I've input "mjpg" under chroma settings for VLC - but I can't find a way to tell for sure if VLC is using the mjpeg stream from the camera, or raw.

Can someone here help me push this further? Is there any way of debugging what is happening under Windows - so that maybe the Linux uvc driver can be modified to get these cameras to work properly?

Any suggestions much appreciated.

Sebastian
