Unable to control photo size of camera image
asked on
I have developed a desktop application in VB.Net.
The application takes a photo from the camera installed on the PC and stores the image in a folder.
On my test system, I have a Logitech Web Cam Pro 9000. When I take the photo, the image is quite large (almost 1600 px wide).
When I deploy this to the Surface Pro 3, the photo image size is quite small (640px wide). The surface Pro inbuilt camera supports very large photo sizes when taken directly from the OS. However, I am unable to change or control the image size in my application.
How can I get the camera to take larger photographs?
