Question by chandan565 · Jul 20, 2015 at 03:59 PM · cameraresolutionnative pluginwebcamtextureratio

WebCamTexture, correct resolution and RATIO.And FPS

Video acquisition via WebCamTexture is extremely slow (less than 3 FPS) in 1200*760 on a moto G2 Android one, which should be capable of better performances... Any idea guys to improve it? I'm under Unity 5.0.1. I've tried to play with different _requestedFPS but it didn't help.

After searching for a while, I've find different solutions

http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/555450/how-can-i-find-max-resolution-for-webcamtexture.html http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/773464/webcamtexture-correct-resolution-and-ratio.html http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/extremely-poor-webcamtexture-performances-under-android-in-high-resolution.221862/ Here is the little code I've used for testing:

 public class CameraController : MonoBehaviour
 {
    public WebCamTexture mCamera = null;
    public Transform plane;
    void Start ()
    {
     mCamera = new WebCamTexture ( 1280,720,30);
     plane.GetComponent<Renderer>().material.mainTexture=mCamera;
     mCamera.Play ();
    }
 }

I've ran into the same problem as you, before. For some reason, WebCamTexture has a very poor performance on Android, unless you use the default contructor:

 mCamera = new WebCamTexture();

Thanks, this really helped. I didn't understand why the default constructor worked, but then I saw the video resolution was crappy. And indeed, problem was the resolution I was requesting in the constructor. I was using Screen.width and Screen.height, so I divided the values by 2 and now it runs really fast.
