We program in java and have a fairly advanced smart dashboard with the low res camera view in a window. We have heard of a number of other teams also having usb camera issues when connected to the field but then we have heard of teams with 2 cameras working fine. We attempted to contacted FIRST a week ago but have not heard anything back. We have decided to focus on a supported AXIS IP camera for the worlds as we just cannot afford to risk what happened at our two regional s.
For anyone, if your USB camera worked at a regional, it would be nice to know
1) did you program in Java
2) do you use the smart dashboard
3) what version of windows did your laptop use
4) what resolution you used for the camera

Can your team provide the robot code? Private message would be fine.
If you send it to me I will only forward to Greg or FIRST.
It is no skin off my back if you do not want to use a USB camera at all.
I would, however, like to find a root cause for the issue.
