I didn't want to join the reverse engineering project just to get an answer on this question: How is the quickcam being read out into the machine? Is it a byte at a time through the parallel port? Or is it via a strobe pin by means of a serial coding technique? Does it produce interrupts? I'm wondering why - at least in the Win95 version (cuseeme or quickmovie) - it hogs the CPU terribly. Also the frame rate still seems to leave desires. --Chris Christoph P. U. Kukulies kuku@gil.physik.rwth-aachen.de
