Many thanks

I agree with Mores. I think all Tecra A10 have a built in webcam.
You can compare between the models on the Toshiba website if you select the notebook model:

Any other choices for communication with web cam

Hi all,
I have wrote a JMF program that takes the images from webcam. However, it really depends on lighting. When lighting is not enough, my whole application hangs. In fact, I have installed the software provided together with my webcam, it works pretty good nomatter how dark it is. Therefore, I really hope you guys can share some experiences to me, or are there any choices, such as, C, C++, etc, that allows me to capture the images from webcam continously. I am tired about java JMF. Thx a lot.

To communicate with web cam, you can avoid JMF using the JavaTwain package http://www.gnome.sk
This package enables you to connect to your camera or scanner directly from a java application.
If you just want to see how Java Twain works with your scanner or camera:
- java (1.2 or higher for Windows, 1.3 or higher for Mac OS X) has to be installed on your computer
- a scanner or camera has to be installed on your computer
- download the trial package from http://www.gnome.sk
- unzipp it
- go to the examples directory of the unzipped package
- in Windows: doubleclick the runExampleShow.bat
- in MacOS:
- open the Terminal window
- change the working directory to the examples
- run .sh file (type ExampleShow.sh or sh ExampleShow.sh)
This will pop up the Twain Source Selection user interface. There, all your scanners and cameras which do have a twain driver should be listed. (About 90% of scanners and cameras on the market do have a twain driver for Windows, only a few do have a twain driver for MacOS.) Select one of them. The user interface of the selected scanner (camera) will appear. Confirm the scanning (you can set the scanning parameters first). The scanned image will be displayed in a separate window. To end the application, close that window.
Running different examples, you can test scanning with hidden UI, saving the scanned image, using ADF, ...
If there is any problem, do not hesitate to inquire about it at the technical support, email: [email protected] . I am the member of the staff :)

Yahoo Msger with Web-cam view support

Does anyone know of any other client besides Gyach Enhanced that allows web-cam viewing using Yahoo Messenger? I am unable to compile Gyach Enhanced and I have not found another client that supports this. If you have been able to compile Gyach Enhanced on Arch could you please provide me the details? Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you

I found http://gyachi.sourceforge.net/ and I attempting to compile, however, I receive the error:
checking for GTKHTML... configure: error: Package requirements (libgtkhtml-2.0 >= 2.0) were not met:
No package 'libgtkhtml-2.0' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GTKHTML_CFLAGS
and GTKHTML_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
I have libgtkhtml-2.6.3-2 and it seems to be located in /opt/gnome/include/gtkhtml-2.0/libgtkhtml . Does anyone have any suggestions on getting this to compile or how to edit the PKG_CONFIG_PATH ? I attempted GTKHTML_LIBS=/opt/gnome/include/gtkhtml-2.0/libgtkhtml but I still receive the same error.
Thank you.

Yahoo messenger 3 beta with web cam support

http://messenger.yahoo.com/
Tony

Ever since I downloaded Yahoo Messenger 3.0, I have not been able to view other user's webcams.
II am using a USB cam.
PC users are able to view my webcam no problem, but I can't seem to view theirs. When they send me a cam invite, I never receive the invite. If I click on the "View My Webcam" under their names on the buddylist, nothing happens.
There doesn't seem to be an option in the menu anymore to view their cam either.
How in the heck do I open their cams?

Made large recording with web cam. too large for QT and VLC to handle.

how can i divide the file into manageable sized files? or some other option?

scratch that. streamclip was also overwhelmed...

Satellite S70-A-11H web camera image quality is not good

Hi,
Running windows 8.1 which came with the laptop.
New out of the box.
As per title.
I find the image quality of the camera image to be very grainy, poor color etc.
When I start the web camera using the search bar on the right, it starts using the Microsoft application, when you scroll down to settings all that is available under settings/options is Photo aspect ratio, Grid lines, Location info.
I have been in touch with Toshiba Tech support who advised to do a Laptop refresh, which I did.
This made no difference.
After which they asked me to find the Toshiba web camera application on the laptop, this should have been in the Program Files folder in the Toshiba folder.
This application does not exist on my laptop.
The tech checked the same model laptop that he had available, which I was told when he selected the web camera, it opened using the Toshiba Web camera application, not Microsoft.
I have looked at other Toshiba laptops with web cameras, and found the image quality to be better. Unable to get to settings as these laptops were on display and in demo mode, hence locked down to some extent.
I can't believe that a web camera in this day and age for this value of laptop to have such poor image quality. My digital camera from 10year ago has better image quality.
I have checked through the laptop, and I do not have this application installed.
I have checked for updated drivers and software for my laptop, and cannot find this application to be applicable for my laptop. Drivers etc appear to be up to date.
I would like to know, do other users of this S series have any issue of camera image quality.
When the camera is selected what application is being used, Toshiba or Microsoft.
Is Toshiba web camera application applicable to Windows 8.1, as I cannot see it listed for 8.1
Does this sound like a hardware fault or a application/software issue.
Any direction or help on this matter would be appreciated, as I am getting to the point of returning this laptop for a refund.
Thanks in advance.
D.
Yes, I have tried using the FORCE!

> The tech checked the same model laptop that he had available, which I was told when he selected the web camera, it opened using the Toshiba Web camera application, not Microsoft.
The Toshiba webcam application is available for Win 7 system but the Win 8 and Windows 8.1 system use the own Microsoft webcam application.
> I have looked at other Toshiba laptops with web cameras, and found the image quality to be better.
Different Toshiba notebooks are equipped with different webcams.
Satellite S70-A-11H was equipped with a *0.92 mega pixel webcam*
A Satellite A660 for example was equipped with an _1.3M mega pixel webcam_
So there is a difference in webcam resolution

Video Streaming on Web Browser from Web Camera

How to run Web Camera on to the Web Browser through JAVA and JMF?

How to run Web Camera on to the Web Browser
through JAVA and JMF? As someone who has written dozens of applets, and
helped debug hundreds of them, I can tell you that
applets are not for beginners.
Whenever I must have an applet that is any more
than completely trivial, I will code it as a combined
application/applet, if only for making testing faster
and easier.
Further, if you have a working application, it can be
'launched from a link', just like an applet, but using
web start.
I suggest you put aside the applet idea for the
moment, and concentrate on doing this in an
application.
When that is working, you can decide whether
to launch it using web start, or embed it as an
applet in a web page.
Here is an example of launching JMF (the
player) using web start.
http://www.javasaver.com/testjs/jmf/#test5
As far as coding for a web cam, a quick Google leads to..
"Here is the source code to JMF Webcam app + saves jpeg"
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=247253
2 notes:
1) I found that URL for the web cam code using
Google. I have never dealt with web cams myself.
2) Normally I ignore threads with no dukes. I am
usually pretty busy, and dukes indicate how
important a thread is - to whoever is asking.
So, if you want to complete this task faster, you might
- search for answers first.
- add dukes to any question, to indicate interest.

Support for HD (1280x720px) web-cams

Does JMF 2.1.1e support HD format (e.g. 1280x720 px, 30 FPS) web-cams?
After a recent purchase of a Netbook with web-cam, I finally got around to playing about with using JMF to access the inbuilt cam and grab sequences of frames (for time-lapse animations). Unfortunately the inbuilt camera is 640x480 and of otherwise low quality (as you might expect of a camera supplied as standard in a Netbook). Am considering buying a HD web-cam, but need to assure myself I am not spending $70+ for a camera that is not compatible with JMF.
Did a quick search of the forum for '720' and got 5 hits that were not relevant.
Side note: Checked the Netbook could take 4 hours worth of frames every 2 seconds and store them (into a Zip archive) at 640x480 using the internal camera on battery. It still had 31% charge left. It will be interesting to see how storing the images performs in terms of charge, using an USB based HD camera. ;)

Andrew, if you don't mind learning something new, I think your best bet would be Adobe Flex. It's free and it's got excellent support for web cams... I'd take a look at some ActionScript code and see if it's something you think you could pick up fairly easily.Might be the way to go. ..That is probably a cleaner approach, but in the end I settled for a hack.
- A simple Java app. that will click a point on screen repeatedly using Robot.
- VLC media player connecting to the web cam and offering a snapshot button to click.
Connected to the new 'Fission'(1) webcam, I get 1600x1200 snapshots in .png format that I can further utilize to create either 1600x1200 4:3 ratio animations, or by cropping a little of the top & bottom and down-sizing, a 720p 16:9 ratio animation. I'd probably do the latter using JAI from an Ant task.
A test last night suggested it could only grab an image around once every 4 seconds. I set it for every 2 seconds over two hours, and while I expected 3600 images, I ended up with just 1836. Given the still camera could only manage one shot every 9 seconds or so, this still allows me to keep the same basic rate of progress of the animation at double the FPS (15->30) that I was seeking. The only other concern is the total length of animation obtainable via. a single battery pack. The 2 hour run took battery from 100% to 41%, but I am hoping I can stretch it to (at least) a 4 hour shoot using a 4 second delay.
1) I had never heard of the Fission brand before I saw it. I got it from Aldi(2) for $25 Aus. It supports a phenomenal range of formats, some astonishingly high.
2) Not sure if Aldi operates in your neck of the woods. They are a German based group that supplies groceries real cheap, and offer whatever other little nick-knacks that are also cheap.

HDX 16-1370US no web cam

I have a HDX16 with web cam and microphone, neither one work now. I have done a fresh install of both Vista 64-bit and Win7 64-bit with no luck. i have tried a brand new hard drive with a fresh install of Win7 64-bit. this laptop came with Vista 64 with Win7 64 upgrade disk. i have even tried a fresh install of Win7 32 with no luck.
I try to use Skype or HP software and it tells me that there is no web cam or microphone available. all drivers are up to date.
this problem started right after SP1 for Win7. any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Try uninstalling service pack 1, it's KB 976932. I know that ever I installed it, I keep getting a message when I shut the computer down, "Windows is waiting for background applications to close" very annoying !
Sounds like Microsoft didn't quite do their homework.
After it's uninstalled try reinstalling the YouCam software again. Look into your antivirus program and see if there is some file(s) that are blocked to prevent it from working.
Go to the Device Manager and look for Imaging Devices, reinstall the driver.
Turn off Microsoft Updates from automatic. Select "Check for updates but let me choose whether to download them and install them" This gives you more control when things happen like this, that's assuming that the cause was an update from Microsoft.
Try doing another fresh install, load your drivers starting with your Chip Set driver and then your Web Cam and see if it works. Don't do any Microsoft updates and don't run any antivirus software.
If you have the HP disc's with the original factory OS on them, install that and see if it works, but do not run Windows update or any Anti Virus software. If it works then it's not a hardware problem
I can only make suggestions here, it's like finding a needle in a hay stack as to why the cam and mikes have stopped working. Maybe someone else will come along with a solid solution.

Tecra M11-17V with Windows 7 - Web Cam image is very grainy

Hi,
Yesterday my webcam (built into the laptop) worked perfectly, today it doesn't....
Whenever I use it now, the image is very grainy, almost like a tartan pattern of criss-crossing lines, but I can still just about make out myself in the background. Movement and sound are still being recorded, just the image is strange.
Please help! Has anyone else had this happen? Is this something I can fix myself, or is it a hardware problem? I have had this laptop about 3months, from brand new, and this is the first problem I've had...
Many thanks,
Dom

Hi Paolo,
Thanks for the tips, but I'm afraid my camera is still out of action....
I've double checked that the protective lens film has been removed, and I've disabled/re-enabled the camera device, updated the camera driver, and completely reinstalled all the camera software to no effect. I've also ruled out conflicting software issues, as the problem persists for both skype calls and the laptop's face recognition software used when logging into my account.
The frustrating thing is that the fault happened suddenly halfway through a skype call. It was working perfectly on minute, and broken the next (seemingly irreversible.... fingers crossed). I had used skype for a mammoth 3hr call the night before, but I hope that wouldn't have "burnt out" the brand new camera...
Do you, or anyone else, know if sounds like a physical problem? Are web cam hardware faults common? I have never dropped the laptop, though it does commute with me on the train into work everyday...
When I first got the laptop, the inbuilt fingerprint scanner didn't work very accurately until I updated the driver software. Is it common for faults to suddenly appear when drivers become "out of date"? Any chance these problems could be related?
Thanks again for your help,
Dom

How do I use an external web cam with my Mac Pro on Skype?

I am trying to use my MAC Pro with an external web cam (Logitec C615) on Skype. I want to use the external so that I can pan and video a room full of people. Kind of hard to do with the built in cam.
How do I tell the Mac Pro to use the external for Skype and not the built in?

Go to Skype preferences, click on audio/video, and choose your camera from the drop down menu...

How do I use a usb web cam with MacBook Pro

How do I use a web camera with a MacBook Pro? I want to run it through my laptop so I can project it on a screen for teaching a class.

You can try it, but probably not.
This Apple article http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2134 explains that a Firewire-connected, tape-based camera or camcorder mode will work.
If you don't have access to one that works, a simple workaround is to record your video with QuickTimeX Player (the v.10.x one from Lion). You can import that recorded video into iMovie for editing.
If your Mac OS is earlier than Lion whose QuickTime does not offer movie recording as installed, use QuickTime7 Pro for recording.
