1.7.4 camera not working

Postby Kilinich » Tue Jun 29, 2010 7:48 am

Algodoo 1.7.4
Windows 7 x32 Enterprise
Microsoft LifeCam Cinema

Camera not working in Algodoo (just black box in camera window)
I see Algodoo trying to use camera (indicator on camera turns on) but nothing on screen.

Second thing I've notice - Algodoo didn't release camera after capture and i can't use it in other applications till quit Algodoo.
Dream of Algodoo as game development engine...

This is an issue with quite a few webcams. However, this seem to be an OpenCV compatibility issue, and so not easily resolved. Also, it's a feature that I suspect isn't used too often, making it a low priority.
