It doesn't thats whats confusing me. Pixel data is the same on both exept it takes more cpu to process. I think it has to do with cpu load but I am not sure. I think I am going to just try a simple "Class array[amount] " intead of "Class *pointer = new Class[amount]" see if that would be easier on the cpu or the coding gods.

BTW its a blobtracking external. It is working perfect tracking quicktime movies but the camera tracking only works if I exclude the addToArray function. This really has me scratching my head!

Why would your processing code know or even care if the input is from a camera or a file? Both should be pixel arrays with no differences in their format.
