Hello,
VLC reboots the PC when a webcam is selected after "Refresh" from the Directshow. This has happened with Webcams from 3 different manufacturers (including Logitech).
This problem is avoided if the Size field is entered as 640*480. But in this case MPEG4 encoding support is not available.
I have been successful in MPEG4 streaming with an old Logitech Webcam that has a VFW driver.
What is the level of support for Directshow in VLC?
Regards,
