This package provides video input plugins for VIPS. It uses the video libraries from the ARToolKit and supports dc1394 firewire cameras and V4L 2 cameras.

There is also a DSVL version for win32 machines. However due to library linking limitations on this platform (two DLLs cannot reference each other), this will not work as a separate plugin.

A nip2 toolkit file provides a basic user interface to the grabber.

• Camera devices are not closed by Vips due to the limitations of the 7.x API. Vips 8.x should rectify this.
• Camera devices do not always init correctly and require additional attempts.
• Changing device params to invalid ones can break the user interface requiring a nip restart.
• Nip toolkit params do not necessarily reflect those that are supported by the camera device.
