Ok, 

Running the code again with a memory trace .. it's eating 7Mb/sec .. something is very wrong ...

Hi, 

My Webcam demo is looking good, it runs <x> V4L[1|2] cameras in tandem .. indeed I left two cameras running earlier and have just returned to find gbx3 has run out of memory at 1.8Gb. Having traced through the code, nothing I'm doing inside that loop is allocating memory .. directly .. :( 

Indeed I can only see two possible leaks; 

a. In Gambas on the line; 

pic.Picture = $device.Image.Picture 
(which is the line the code errored on ..) 

b. In CWebcam.c on the line; 

GB.ReturnObject(IMAGE.Create(THIS->w,THIS->h,GB_IMAGE_BGR,THIS->frame)); 

Does anything spring to mind ??? 

... just double-double checked .. I can't see any other possibilities .. ??? 

Gareth.
