Research direction
Start by reproducing the choppy video with a Logitech C920 on elementary OS 0.4.1, then compare Camera with guvcview, Cheese, and Chromium as described. Done means high-resolution camera video is no longer slow while audio and video continue to work as expected.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Steps to reproduce the issue
- Plug in a Logitech C920
Expected behavior
Video to not be really slow.
System information
- elementary OS 0.4.1 Loki:
I also tried installing guvcview from package and from the ppa on sourceforge, no difference. Also there are some mentions online of changing Auto white balance in guvcview, but this didn't change anything.
In cheese and in Chromium there is no problem. Audio and video works as expected.
