Hi, for my real time process question; i have two threads with infinite loops; one which gets raw video from a webcam, encodes it using MPEG1 and sends it to the network the other ; receives the video from the remote side and displays it. As it is obvious, the first thread never stops working. And it i also obvious that this is exactly a realtime application. So what do you recommend? should not i make these threads realtime processes? also what may change if i do use a realtime enhanced kernel, like timesys, instead of the standard kernel? thanks in advance. best regards. -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
