LiveCode Forums.

Hello,

First post here, and I must say I am already a big fan of LiveCode, which I discovered a few months ago. It allowed me to release a full Mac-PC commercial product in a very short time. Congrats and many thanks to the LiveCode team for having brought the HyperCard principle to such a high level !

My question is about the built-in iSight you find in MacBooks and MacBooks Pro. As someone already stated in another forum, LiveCode no more previews these camera's live feed correctly : it constantly displays a big green rectangle on the right, although it will record without this artefact. I noticed this behavior on 2 MacBooks - one of the most recent models and one from 2008 - and on a MacBook Pro Corei5 2.4.

An interesting point : it only affects the 640 * 480 built-in iSight, not the 1280*1024 that is included in my iMac 24 '. And live previewing also works very well on a Logitech HD Pro 910 with the most recent Logitech Mac drivers.

Does anyone know of a workaround for this problem, or if it is about to be fixed ?

Thanks in advance

Last I heard, it was a bug in MacOSX 10.6 QuickTime; and that the team is looking for a workaround.
How soon they'll be able to find it, is hard to predict.

Looks pretty encouraging, thanks Jan !
