Re: Simple Custom Video Dashboard 30+ FPS
 

The default camera compression when the camera is reset is definitely not zero. I've seen a number of threads saying to set compression to zero or saying it is best to set compression to zero. As with any advice, verify a before and after. I definitely do not see best performance with compression at zero.

As for the LV dashboard killing the Classmate CPU. You have access to the source, and in fact there are a few things that drastically lower the CPU usage. The simplest change is to click on the image display and in Visible Items, hide the Image Information element. There is another thing you can do, but it was really the combination of these two things that was causing lots of excessive drawing. I'll write up more on this once I have a chance to test it on an actual classmate.

I'm pretty sure that the default compression is 0 or 10. I'm pretty sure that it is 0 at least in C++.

I'm referring to the default of the Axis camera, not the default of the WPI code. The default LV compression was five this year in order to minimize noise in the image, but this does affect loop rate at medium and large image sizes.
