Can't get the video and sound to sync. Video lags behind sound by several frames. |
| Summary |
I would love to give this webcam 10 out of 10 on every count. But I can't, because of serious sync problems with video files. I have tried the Quickcam Pro 5000 via USB 2.0 on four different hi-spec PCs, but the problem persists. The pictures and sound are always out of sync and get increasingly so as time progresses.
What a shame, because every other aspect of the Logitech Quickcam Pro 5000 is first class and the still pics are quite amazing for a product in this price bracket. So, if stills are all you need - go for it. Otherwise, I suggest that those planning a lot of video will be disappointed. |
