Folks, I am working with Webcamstudio to build a video switcher, the soft- ware runs on linux, I need it to run fast so that the delays and other timing issues are at a minimum. Looks like the hardware just needs to be fast and have a nice amount of memory. Most of the cameras used are USB type cameras, I am thinking that I need something that does not have all of the USB ports on a single USB bus.
Any recommendations or is anyone on list using Webcamstudio? All I need to figure out is what hardware I should use to make it work and not have delays. I have tested the latest code out on my Thinkpad X200 with 3 web cams, and it does not do too bad there, the OS is Ubuntu 12.04, I am also running Compiz so there is some overhead that a dedicated machine would not have as I would run it with a light window man- ager. -- Chuck Hast -- KP4DJT -- Glass, five thousand years of history and getting better.
