Hello,
I’ve got a B0196 that I’m using to try and replace a logitech C270 in a product we make. Teh camera is controlled by Python/OpenCV running from a raspberry pi 3. The code to connect is very simple:
cam = self.__cameras[index]
if cam is None or not cam.isOpened():
raise Exception(“VideoCapture is not connected”)
logging.info('setting camera ’ + str(index) + ’ to width ’ + str(self.IMAGE_WIDTH) + ’ and ’ + str(self.IMAGE_HEIGHT))
cam.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_WIDTH, self.IMAGE_WIDTH)
cam.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_HEIGHT, self.IMAGE_HEIGHT)
cam.set(cv2.CAP_PROP_FOURCC, cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc(*‘MJPG’))
logging.info('camera is ’ + str(cam.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_WIDTH)) + ’ ’ +
str(cam.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_HEIGHT)))
On the Logitech camera this simply connects and starts working at the required resolution but with a B0196 the resolution is 1280 by 800:
2019-02-14 10:40:34,899 - root - INFO - setting camera 0 to width 1280 and 960
2019-02-14 10:40:34,985 - root - INFO - camera is 1280.0 800.0
Does anyone know why this is happening - note doesn’t happen on windows when running on DirectShow.
Cheers,
Neil
