Hello

I was working my project with one webcam in both windows10 and ubuntu 16.04, and I find when I get this webcam's exposure bycap.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_EXPOSURE), I will get a negative integer (around -5 to -7) in windows10, and a positive integer (around 70) in ubuntu 16.04, I want to know why there is difference? and what is the meaning of value of cv2.CAP_PROP_EXPOSURE in windows10 and ubuntu 16.04 is respectively?

In both operating system, I have my python environment as follow:

python=3.5.4

opencv-python=4.1.0.25

Thanks a lot!

The negative integers represent an exponent base 2 of a second. I.e. -5 == 2^-5 == 0.03125 seconds or something like that. And the positive integers represent a duration in milliseconds.
