Hi Does any one have any idea as to how to find out if there has been any frame drop during a motion capture using V4l. I heard that there is a bttv specific ioctl that can do that. But I would like a more generic one so that copatibility between non-bttv chipset cards can be obtained. It would also be helpful if could also know as to how many frames has been dropped. regards -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------o.
