I am having the same issue, on a 4x AMD Phenom(tm) 9550 (5867MB RAM) desktop with a ATI Radeon HD 4550. I think the issue may have sprung up somewhere between the karmic -> maverick, since I'd recorded some pretty sweet vids back on karmic (sorry, only realized the problem now, when I had some new vids to record).
hawthornso23's comment is interesting because I am using a PS3 eye camera, a USB device with an in-built mic, but also have a separate mic that I generally use. However I use ALSA, not Pulse (does bad things to my setup) -- does anyone have any tips on how to disable the PS3 mic? On a separate note, GTK UVC Viewer works great (except weird interface) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/385344 Title: Netbooks- Cheese video recording is laggy at higher video resolutions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
