			<description><![CDATA[Hey guys, sorry for taking a while to respond.
Anyway, the black bars have disappeared! After playing around with the exposure and gain settings, and using a set with different colours, the flicker was gone.
Although I am curious about using full-spectrum bulbs. They look fairly expensive online, but can they be bought at hardware stores cheaper?
Thanks for all your help! :D]]></description>

Play with the exposure and gain to brighten it up, then dim out the lights a little bit.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Legomoviefantastic,

I had the same problem, so I played around with the Logitch webcam software.

1. Open up your Logitech webcam software.
2. There should be seven icons. Click the 5th one with the two bolts (that is the setting icon)
3. There should be six icons to the left. click the icon with the owl wearing the graduation hat. 
4. It should say anti flicker, and beneath that there should be: Off, 50Hz (Europe), 60Hz (North America). I click the 50Hz (Europe) one. 
5. Start Brickfilming!

If that doesn't work, and you've experimented with the other options, then send me a private message.

			<description><![CDATA[Are you using regular halogen lightbulbs? That looks similar to the black bars I got when I used halogen bulbs (I use the same webcam). If you're using those bulbs, get full-spectrum bulbs. I got some and the lines were gone!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I get the same problem and I generally do what Hazzat said to fix it.  I also find that the 'black bars' occur when a shot has a lot of the same or similar color, in your case it's white.  So just that tip, if you want to minimize the 'black bars' appearing, try to have a wide variety of colors in your sets.  It not only helps reduce the light-flicker problem but it gives the scene an eye-catching appeal to the viewer.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[It's got nothing to do with MonkeyJam, you're right, it's to do with your exposure and gain settings. If you play with those sliders, I'm sure you'll find the black bars disappearing.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I have (recently) purchased a Logitech Quickcam 9000. I think the camera will be perfect for me, but I am currently having problems with these strange faint "black bars" that keep appearing in my frames. I am capturing the frames with MonkeyJam, but I don't think MonkeyJam is the problem because I know other users that have used the same camera with MonkeyJam. Am I doing something wrong with the lighting? I have posted a short test to explain the "black bars".

By the way, the video quality isn't as high as usual because I was playing around with picture sizes.]]></description>
