Hello Tomasz and all, sorry for the late response - needed to figure several things first.
>>Have tried to wait until camera is in active status? Yes, this is the case. Not that I consciously did that but the cam de facto is in active state. >>And why you set timer interval to 40 ms? Assuming a frame rate of 25 fps the capture interval is 40 ms. In the meantime I figured that this Please find a minimal example app here, which shows my problem decribed below. It works fine on Linux, Windows and also Windows in a virtual Box on OSX but on native OSX I have this delay of 35 seconds until the sytems works: https://www.dropbox.com/s/u6ifh6enco012xk/myCamera.zip?dl=0 Thanks, best Alex -- http://www.carot.de Email : alexan...@carot.de Tel.: +49 (0)177 5719797 > Hi all, > > I have a video related app, which works fine but it takes 35 seconds after > initialization for the cam to work in single-capture modus.
