Unfortunatley, low-end capture cards do not generate a clock from the input stream, so we have to use the system clock. The slight drift between the two will result in occasional (although hopefully rare) frame drops/dups. V4L2 is a little better, as the frame is timestamped on the VSYNC pulse, which improves the accuracy quite a bit. You can control the length of capture with the "-F x" switch, where x is the number of frames to capture, or the "timer" app in the tools directory. -justin _______________________________________________ Video4linux-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list
