Setting resolution camera

[argus]

I'm writing a little program to capture video frames from a webcam and save them as avi. My setup is simple

Dscapture > mirror > snapshot > DSvideologger

Works great!! Only one problem. All the video seems to be saved in resolution 1280 X 720. I have tried to set the resolution to 1920 X 1080 (my HP HD-4410 is capable, It works with the oem software) but nothing changes. Tried all resolution but the result is always 1280 X 720.

BTW Great soft!!!

Hi! Is that streaming 1920x1080 or single shots?

You should also try searching for this here, i think someone else had a similar issue.

single shot would do fine. (I'm trying to make a simple capture software to convert super 8 movie)

Still, does the OEM software perhaps interpolate the image or is it streaming full HD?

The datasheet states (HP HD-4110):

VIDEO RESOLUTION • Full 1080P (1920x1080)

VIDEO RESOLUTION SUPPORT
• Live video resolutions supported at up to 30 frames per second:
- 352 x 288
- 424 x 240
- 432 x 240
- 640 x 360
- 640 x 480
- 800 x 448
- 800 x 600
- 960 x 544
- 960 x 720
- 1280 x 720
• Video record at up to 1920 x 1080[/undefined]

The difference between "video record" and "video resolution" is not very clear but they keep calling it "full HD 1080p"

If all else fails, read the manual.. which, in this case, isn't very helpful either. Perhaps you can try a program, like VirtualDub, to see if you can capture video in full-HD.
