There is a similar API (ioctl() on /proc/video/ov511/<minor#>/control) but it is not necessary to use compression. You only need to load the driver with "compress=1" and then load ov511_decomp.o >What kind of fps can I reach if I stick to this model >of WebCam? > 15 FPS at 640x480, and 30 FPS at 320x240. 60 FPS may be possible at lower resolutions. Testing was done with xawtv; some apps (ones that use read()) may be slower. Most USB webcams perform similarly to this. -- Mark McClelland [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Video4linux-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list
