Here are the importan parts of my .camerc: --- # jpeg quality (you can save as png etc too, but then quality does squat) quality = 75 input = 0 ... # image processing crop = 1 crop_width = 620 crop_height = 350 crop_x = 0 crop_y = 20 ---
When crop is set to 1 the quality setting has no effect (than came is using a high quality, that will make the pictures big) . When crop is set to 0 the quality setting works. I am using an eee-pc (900a, with ubuntu 8.10) as server for my webcam (quickcam sphere af). For example: I use camE for the aquarium webcam on my webpage: http://www.erdenkriecher.de/fisch , but the pictures are relatively big in filesize (about 63k). So i wanted to reduce quality, but the quality setting has no effect, even when I set the quality to 15 the new pictures looks high quality and were about 63k. When I turned of the cropping the quality setting works as normal and the jpg-picture were smaller in size and blocky (as you would estimate with a quality setting of 15). I have tested this behaviour a few minutes ago again. So I think there is a bug in camE, so that camE ignores the quality setting in the .camErc and use a standard quality setting when cropping is turned on. -- camE ignores jpg-Quality Settings if you use crop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/344335 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
