I am trying to get camera tracking working on my beaglebone black. I want to use the axis camera to do this, and I can get that part working. The problem is that the tracking is limited to about 15 frames per second, and the camera is sending at 30fps. This is causing images to just get stored in the buffer, which then starts lagging badly. Does anybody know how to either shrink the buffer down to 1 image, read from the back of the buffer, or loop through the buffer to the end quickly. Or if there are any other suggestions that would help too.

Also this is unrelated, but does anybody know why no networking programs allow reading from the back of the buffer. I have wanted to do that MANY times, but nothing ever supports it, and just curious if anybody knows why that is.
