Try increasing the light level in your room. Webcam CCDs aren't that good in general and with a low light level the firmware increases the shutter speed (means the shutter stays open longer) which results in a framerate drop.
Sometimes the webcam comes with some tools to adjust shutter speed and CCD gain manually, so you can still get your 30fps out of the cam - but by sacrifizing image quality (pixel noise increases). Low FPS are usually experienced as laggy video input. Of course that's one possible problem. You can also try looking into the video formats your webcam supports, mostly you can switch between a bunch of YUV formats and MJPEG. Try MJPEG since it results in a lower USB bandwidth consumption and therefore could help if the USB is the problem. How ya doing, buddy? |
