Re: Hello, I have a feature request...



Hi Max,
I'm currently working on this. I feel your pain--I too have a good
webcam with some nice resolutions, so I put together a patch that
implements a very simple preferences dialog that allows you to change
resolutions. For more on this, check out the Bugzilla bug on it:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=522200 You can find my patch
there too.

Well, a lot will need to be done to get the dialog up to par so that it
can get in. :) For starters, we're going to need to make quite a few
changes to the webcam handling code (cheese-webcam.c) to support
different resolutions for photo and video. There are probably a few
other issues. The Cheese code isn't that hard to get into...I got it
pretty quickly. If you have at least passing familiarity with GStreamer
it won't be hard at all. ;) So don't hesitate to join in. I'd love to
have your help with all of this, as I won't have much time to work on it
for a while.

Thanks,
James
