iLackey Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Has anyone else experienced any issues using the built in iSight? More specifically backdrops in Photobooth and the new "security" screen saver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssbands04 Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 yeah I'm having issues too......I think it's pretty widespread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt b Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Photobooth crashes on the 3rd pages of effects for me, but all the effects work on iChat just fine. The security screensaver is hit-and-miss, but never crashes outright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virtualball Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Same on my first revision MacBook. Is it because of my 512 MB RAM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robhim Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 photobooth lagges like hell on my mbp its kinda annoying cuz i just got a macbook pro from a first revision macbook and was really diggin the upgraded isight.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanM Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Photo Booth crashes all the time for me on the third page of effects (backdrops). Â I am using a MacBook with 2 GB ram, so I don't think that's the issue. It's probably a video card related thing or something, or a problem with the internal iSights, dunno.

iLackey Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 After re-watching the WWDC video, I noticed Steve is using the external iSight cam. Maybe thats a hint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macuser74 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 After re-watching the WWDC video, I noticed Steve is using the external iSight cam. Maybe thats a hint? I am using an external iSight and having the same issues with both iChat and photobooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkelipse04 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 It's an issue with the Macbooks integrated graphics and Leopard...it's noted in the known issues in the build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xfsasx Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Its the graphics card not the isight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylew Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 If you read the file on the list of bugs it says that the Intel integrated graphics cards are not yet supported. Works fine on my Mac Pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robhim Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 well i think i found out why photobooth lagged so much in leopard (atleast on my mbp santa rosa) was becaues of the new 1.3 MP camera it has. it was probably someonewhat implemented in the system b/c when i use the test app at http://macdaddyworld.com/ which utilitizes it it is just as slow as the leopard one... stoked to see what will come of it b/c the clarity of the 1280 pictures is awesome and even in tiger's little compressed photobooth images are a lot better than the VGA ones i have next to them.
