still DC camera ( like Unibrain camera ) give uncompressed signal, so they have very low latency... these cameras are supported generally on Mac OSX through quicktime ( with pix_video or pdp_ieee1394 that uses quicktime too ). on linux, cameras are supported by different APIs and thus different objects ( pdp_ieee1394, pdp_v4l, pdp_v4l2 or pdp_dc1394 ) depending on your type of cameras....
Hi Yves and list, I didn't know anything about pdp_dc1394. I'm on ubuntu lucid (10.4) and pd-extended 0.42 and the object doesn't exist. Should I compile pdp in order to get this object? When I worked with IIDC camera on linux and pd (a unibrain one) I used coriander to get it as a standard v4l device (by using vloopback module), and it worked like a charm! But maybe I should try pdp_dc1394 (if I found it!) cheers husk
ola,
yes it's not compiled in pd-extended, you have to get pidip sources and install libdc1394-22-dev.. and then compile pidip.
this is something lluis did recently that was never included in pd-extended.. neither in pure:dyne packages.
ciao, sevy
