1.1.2a47 working! Conflict report

[James Allen-Jones]

> 
> Hi All,
> 
> Thanks for the latest release, havn¹t tried it yet because I seem to have
> acquired a completely different problem with the Logitech camera.
> 
> As said earlier, I would be getting a USB 2.0 card.  Have now installed the
> Sonnet Allegro PCI card and have the camera plugged in directly.
> 
> Have also bought the Elgato EyeTV 250 Plus which requires USB 2.0 and that is
> still working fine (though I can¹t get the upgrade to EyeTV 3 because someone
> has already used the activation key to do that! and the TVTV subscription
> expired on 01/01/01!  Am having words with the reseller tmrw ...)
> 
> There is a reason for telling you this ­ in trying to upgrade to EyeTV 3, I
> needed to scan my invoice to send them a copy (no proof of purchase card in
> the box either ­ humph).  Have a Microtek Scanmaker 6800 and in Tiger, was
> using the ScanWizard 5 driver.  This does not work in Leopard and neither does
> the ScanWizard Pro 7  (SilverFast will work but is too expensive and
> apparently Microtek are looking into the matter ...).
> 
> Anyway, after uninstalling both the Microtek scanner finder and SW5, the
> webcam started to work almost properly so there was a conflict with one or the
> other and my guess is it¹s the scanner finder.  Interesting but I guess not
> excessively helpful since no one will have those scanner drivers installed
> with Leopard if they have sense!  However it might be worth keeping an eye on
> Microtek¹s solution when it comes up with one.
> 
> To return to my present troubles, apart from the window resizing problem which
> also occurs using VideoViewer, the image window suddenly acquired
> interruptions of green and purple fuzziness so I uninstalled everything and
> plugged the webcam into a different USB 2.0 port.  However, upon checking that
> PhotoBooth was ok ­ it was not.  The picture does not flash with green &
> purple but it does flash and flicker constantly which it did not used to do.
> 
> Meanwhile, EyeTV is working fine so am a bit stuck ­ it does not obviously
> appear to be the new card but am no expert.
> 
> Any suggestions ??  Is the Belkin USB 2.0 card better ??  Is it the card¹s
> fault ??
> 
> Will install 1.1.2b1 when the camera has stabilised with the native drivers.
> 
> Thanks in advance,

> 
> BTW:  Am Œtelling¹ here but asked BTV if they could help with my previous
> camera & software problems (lots of nasty crashes with button shutdowns) and
> they suggested the Macam driver might work ­ it didn¹t even recognise the
> camera so IOX have the lead ... And I don¹t begrudge the 20 bucks.
> 
> Hang in there Carl & Francisco, Steve & the team will get it sorted, uncharted
> waters and all that ..
