charlienail Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 i'm having this issue with my hackintosh but i believe the problem would be the same with any mac but no one has noticed because macs come with built in isights... the latest cams that have uvc support generally have high def sensors ie 1280x960 including creative optia pro, pro af, logitech quickcam for notebooks pro and pro 9000 but they can't do 30fps past 800x600, they do support 1280x960 and even higher interpolated resolutions like the ridicolous 1600x1200 on the quickcam pro, but only at horrible fps like 9 or 7.5 or even 5 which creates blurry, unusable video so it doesn't make any sense that this even exists but you need a driver which will select the lower resolution video for webchat and the like where you want 30fps the uvc driver in osx (10.5.1 anyway) defaults to the highest resolution with the horrible frame rate. anyone have a clue as to how a different resolution/fps combo could be selected from osx or am i stuck waiting for apple to fix this which they will probably not care to do because their usb isights are not hidef. anyone know of 3rd party uvc drivers for osx? this issue doesn't affect vga cams like the regular optia or older logitech cams, or even the xbox live vision.

Damn you are right on with this. I have partial support in OSX and this is exactly the reason for it. If someone can edit the UVC driver it would help 100's of thousands of people here with cams that only partially work.
