[GnomeMeeting-list] Gnomemeeting stops videograbbing

[info <5740 mail ru>]

Hello,

here is a such problem.

I have 2 linux boxes - desktop box with 512M and notebook with 
256 M. Linux installation on the both boxes is the same - I 
made a full copy from desktop box to notebook (and then correct 
some some machine-specific parameters, of course). Vebcameras 
are the same - Creative Web Pro ex.

On the "big" 512M box gnomemeeting works fine. But when I start 
it on notebook... The first minute there are no problems - 
gnomemeeting works correctly, it show video and can to 
connect... But 1-2-3 vinutes later videograbbing stops, 
gnomemeeting shows the last grabbed image. Other functions 
works correctly.

First time I thought that such problem caused because of memory 
difference (512M and 256 M), but today I temporary increase 
notebooks' memory up to 512M, but it takes no effect. 

Of course, videomemory is different too: desktop equipped with 
GeForce 2 MX with quite big memory (64M or more, I forgot...), 
notebook have SiSM650 with 32M. As your understand, monitors 
are diffetent: ViewSonic G90f+ 1600x1024 on desktop and 
flatpanel on notebook. I try to reduce vidememory usage by 
setting lower colour depth in notebook (up to 8 bit), but it 
takes no effect too.

The same problem with stopping videograbbing detected in 
Camorama too, when I start it on notebook. It forces me to 
think that problem is somewhere in soft used both by camorama 
and gnomemeeting.  

Xawtv works on notebook without any problem.

By the way, in this situation I can't cancel gnomemeeting when 
it minimized in the tray; camorama cancelled only by xkill.

Best regards,

George

Hello,

here is a such problem.

I hsve 2 linux boxes - desktop box with 512M and notebook with 
256 M. Linux installation on the both boxes is the same - I 
made a full copy from desktop box to notebook (and then correct 
some some machine-specific parameters, of course). Vebcameras

On the "big" 512M box gnomemeeting works fine. But when I start 
it on notebook... The first minute there are no problems - 
gnomemeeting works correctly, it show video and can to 
connect... But 1-2-3 vinutes later, when free physical memory 
became about 10 M, videograbbing stops, gnomemeeting shows the 
last grabbed image. Other functions works correctly.

By the way, in this situation I can't cancel gnomemeeting when 
it minimized in the tray...

Best regards,

George
