[AG-TECH] Issues with QuickCam Pro 5000

[Darren Condon]

Doug,
 
I have been using the logitech entry all along, but I have just changed
it to the WDM image capture and left it running without any problems for
the couple of hours.
 
Darren.

How are you configuring it within AG? Do you use the Logitech device
entry or the WDM image capture entry in the AG preferences?

thanks!

	Yea, the 4000 works like a charm, but it's not quite as good
video wise.
	
	I'd like to recommend the 9000 due to the fact that we have a
lot of  
	skype users and the latest version of skype supports pseudo
hig-def  
	(higher res) and some hardware assisted encoding in the camera.
I'll  
	probably try to get in a test version to see how it reacts, but

	hopefully somebody here has bought that webcam.
	
	Problem with staying with older Logitech cameras is that they
tend to  
	get harder and harder to find especially if logitech
discontinues that  
	model.

			Hmm...I don't think I tried using WDM capture
instead of the listed  
			device. Are you using this model?

				did you have the right OS software?
				the web site defaults to the vista

				also make sure that you have them
configured as:
				Microsoft WDM Image Capture (Win32)
