Re: Matching input sizes. (was: Multiple cameras?)

John,

I recall that this came up a while back on the Firewire list, and the consensus was that 2 iSights at 640x480 far exceed the FW400 bandwidth, so it "automagically" downgrades one to fill the remaining bandwidth for the second camera. IIRC, a single 640x480 signal takes up about 90% of the FW400 data bandwidth (but don't quote me on that). A FW800 hub won't help, of course, since the iSights are FW400, but if you had 2 FW800 cameras on the FW800 ports it should work.

Bummer.

So, anyone have a suggestion for a way I can throttle down the first one, so that I can at least match the sizes?
