Hi,

I have released a new development version of Aravis,a LGPLv2+ gobject based library for the acquisition of video streams from Genicam compliant digital cameras.

http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/aravis/0.5/

This release features a new function that automatically determines the best stream packet size for GigEVision devices, arv_camera_gv_auto_packet_size ().

There is a little example in tests/arvautopacketsizetest.c.

On a standard system, the resulting packet size will be still the default maximum packet size, which is 1500 bytes. If you want to use bigger packets, and hence reduce cpu usage, you have to increase the MTU setting of your ethernet adapter, and if the connection to the camera is not direct, you also probably have to tweak the active devices on your network.

        Cheers,

                Emmanuel.
