Thank you for advice. <br>Concerning the webcam, I'm pretty sure that the raw video stream is already *compressed* (USB 1.1 can't handle high datarates), but I'm not sure that it can be handled by VLC without transcoding.. The webcam driver already perform some transcoding -> that will eat CPU.
<br>I'll look forward for USB Video Class compliant webcams.<br><br><br>I'm not feeling comfortable with VLC, but any advices are welcomes !<br><br>Any ideas ?<br><br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">2007/9/20, Rémi Denis-Courmont <
