Hello all,

Here are the specs. on the laptop I've been using to capture AVI's with my ToUcam Pro 740

Compaq Armada
Pentium II 128 MB RAM
10 GB HD
Windows 98 2nd edition
System Rescources: 83% free
Disk Compression: not installed
Memory: 32 bit

Capture software: As supplied with ToUcam

I usually loose 4 out of 5 frames captured at 10 fps-1/25 ss

Should I reduce the frame rate to 5 fps?

I have tried to download K3ccdtools but when I try to open the file, I get a warning message :

" REINSTALL NETWORK PROTOCOL "

Any ideas on what I'm missing?

Thanks for your help,
Tom T.

Tom, try to download IRIS 4.0 which is also freeware...

As far as K3CCDTools goes, it seems to be a Zipped file, I hope you have WinZip on your machine in order to un-compress it... if not, then you can also get WinZip for free...


Keep us posted,
