This project is not a video compressor, it is a video capture device.  Very little compression is needed to get 720p60 onto USB Hi-Speed.  What little compression will be done is image compression on the individual frames.  Once the data is in the CPU the user may compress it using theora or Dirac, store it as raw, or process it however they like.

This project is not a video compressor, it is a video capture device.  Very little compression is needed to get 1280p60 onto USB Hi-Speed.  What little compression will be done is image compression on the individual frames.  Once the data is in the CPU the user may compress it using theora or Dirac, store it as raw, or process it however they like.
  
 
I want to modify the video stream as little as possible.  Video compression implies decompression.  Since many will want to use the data live, lets not add an extra step of decompression for the CPU and user application.  If they want to capture the stream, let the user application store it to the Hard Disk in whatever format the user likes, hopefully its Theora or Dirac.
