Jean,


I'll look through you cases carefully, but now here is a quick suggestion -
have you tried *.mov format instead of *.ogm?

OGM requires significantly  more CPU resources for the encapsulation than
MOV (i.e. it need software checksum calculations, MOV just merges individual
JPEG(JP4) frames and maintains a single index. When all the compression is
done in software such overhead is barely noticeable, but in the camera most
of the "hard labor" is done in the FPGA and the CPU - it is just a 200MHz
one.
