Works fine for me with an Creative WebCam II (tested with both models, the oe with OV511 and the one with OV511+). It's slow, so it only gives still pictures, could take maybe 1 or 2 pictures per second I guess, I've never tried, because I use it as webcam with 10 or 20 second updates. The controller is an UHCI. I don't have the notebook here at the moment, so I can't give you more precise values, if you need, just tell me and I'll have a look at it. - Oliver -- | Oliver Brandmueller | Offenbacher Str. 1 | Germany D-14197 Berlin | | Fon +49-172-3130856 | Fax +49-172-3145027 | WWW: http://the.addict.de/ | | Ich bin das Internet.
