Usb Webcam Only With Resolution 320 X 240 By Tracking Face
, I am testing a USB webcam connected to my PC. The face tracking feature only works with a resolution of 320 x 240. If I choose a higher resolution, such as 640 x 480 or above, it does not track faces. Is this normal behavior? Interestingly, object tracking works well at higher resolutions.
