I'm interested in getting uncompressed frames from an IP camera. I haven't bought a camera yet and am wondering if something is available that allows for this. Or do most IP camera only deliver compressed frames/video?
The reason I'm interested in this is because I'd like to perform my own processing on individual frames as quickly as possible and if I don't have to perform decompression on my machine that'd save a little time. I don't mind dropping frames and thus compression schemes that operate over multiple frames (e.g. H.264) aren't necessary and may actually be detrimental to overall speed.
