This is a phillips webcam chipset so setpwc sets the framerate from the command line --- at least there is workaround for now. pdp_v4l2 didn't work with this webcam.

ola,

it's kind of strange, seems some cameras needs it and others no.. but it surely lacks a message to change the framerate for those who need it..

also in pdp_v4l2, it works fine, the frequency of the metro controls the framerate, so maybe, you can see if your cam is supported by pdp_v4l2, that would be the faster solution

When opening a webcam using pdp_v4l I get the message:

pdp_v4l: camera framerate set to 10 fps

Any way to change this frame rate? I didn't see anything in the help patch. Banging with different metronome speed [pdp_v4l] changes the rate at which video is output from the object, but I can see from the resulting video that the actual framerate from the webcam is not changing. [pix_video] does not seem to have this problem so I know the framerate can be changed.

Thx,
