Topic: Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 Problem

Hey everyone, Uh, I am having a problem, Ok so in my studio or my room there is a laptop that I use to capture my frames with Monkey Jam (I use a logitech quickcam pro 9000), I only have windows movie maker on that because my other programs like sony vegas and adobe after effects wont work the greatest on it because it is an older laptop. So if I want to edit some of my frames or pictures, instead of monkey jam I just use the quickcam software, take the pictures, Then go to the folder, copy the pictures onto a flash drive, then go to my main desktop and put them on there. BUT, when I do that the pictures aren't as nice as when I first took them???? I can't figure it out mini/sad , I want to use my programs, but with the quality of the picture not great, I don't want to upload crap quality videos! could it be that my laptop is Windows XP and my desktop is Windows Vista?

This may seem kind of confusing, sorry.

Thanks

Sounds like resolution issues. Were the picture Compressed?

Re: Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 Problem

Does the quality look different between one machine and the other BEFORE you do any photo editing on your 2nd machine?  If so, it may just be a monitor quality or resolution issue.

What file format are the original files saved as?  JPG, BMP, PNG, etc?

JPG does lossy compression (some quality loss trade-off for much smaller file sizes)
PNG does lossless compression (no quality loss, but larger file size than Jpg)
BMP does no compression (no quality loss, but largest file sizes of all)

Hope that helps.

that sounds like the answer to me.
