Hi all, This question was asked just a month ago and got no response, which I guess answers my question, but anyway... Is there any way to gain access to the button on the top of a pwc webcam (I use a Logitech Quickcam Pro 4000)? Would this task be up to the pwc video driver or would the button be treated like a separate USB device like the microphone? I realise that 99% of users will never use the button and that using up bandwidth checking whether it's being pushed may seem like a waste, but for certain applications, that button could be very useful. For example, I am developing a device that uses only motion detection through the webcam to control it and that one button would prove very useful to me to invoke a callibration function. Thanks for any help, Andrew. -- -- Andrew Cavers www.mution.com _______________________________________________ pwc mailing list http://lists.saillard.org/mailman/listinfo/pwc |
