Resolume Forum

hi Everyone,
I’m new to projection mapping and Resolume (and the forums!), so I hope I put this question in the right area.

I’m prototyping a stage setup, and am using a Logitech C920 webcam to preview my scene so I can take my footage and slice it up to match my scene geometry (bunch of cubes). I’m using a MacPro (OSX 10.8.5), and Logitech does not provide drivers for the Mac, relying instead on the UVC drivers within the Mac OS.

My question is how can I get the Logitech webcam to default or use either 720p or 1080p inside of Resolume 4; it seems to default to 640x480.

Has anyone else faced this issue, or found a workaround? From my limited time with Resolume, it appears that direct setting of the webcam settings is not done inside of Resolume itself.

thanks for any help or ideas!

I used the caputur card and SONY 790 camera can reach 1080I

There should be a drop down menu in your clip preference pan where you can select the resolution. Check out this post: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=11133

Thanks fob67cry, but for some reason, I don't have a dropdown choice. My only options are deinterlace and Duration length. I'm not using any capture cards; just straight USB connection.

I did come up with a workaround though...

This is a free app that lets you stream live video.
I setup my Logitech C920 in CamTwist, and then open Arena. The webcam resolution is whatever was defined in CamTwist, so I can now see 1080p and 720p inside Arena, which is what I wanted

I appreciate your link. I'll have to figure out why I cannot see the Connection options for my video feed. Could it be the lack of specific drivers for webcams in OSX?

regards,
