PAL or NTSC? With NTSC has 30 fps frame rate and it should hit every 3th frame pretty well. PAL has 25 fps and it will not work that nicely. The only way to reduce the frame rate is to skip frames and picking 10 frames out of 25 isn't going to work smooth ... > Is this the proper way of grabbig with reduced framerate ? Grab at full frame rate and throw away the frames you don't want. Gerd -- You have a new virus in /var/mail/kraxel
