[PD] Video DS 3/4 Contrast

2007-10-05 Thread Peter Forde

Hello Again,
 
I am running some live video from a security camera but my computer chugs a lot 
at full Res. VideoDS is the perfect solution except I am looking for a happy 
medium. Half is fast but too grainy and full is fine but too slow. Is there a 
way to set a happy medium say 3/4 or test out any other variables ?
 
Also because I am using low light with Black  White video I need to bump the 
contrast so pix_movement can better read the changes. I am aware pix_movement 
has a threshold but this is a variable I would like to play with after.
 
Thanks for all the support. I'm not sure if the eticate is to thank or not 
after getting a reply.
I am very grateful.

What device are you using for video input?

If its linux compatible you should try pure:dyne.

I've been using v4l pix_video input on linux for weeks on end...
