Hello forum, I'm writing to ask for help with a quality issue when using my webcam on sites like chatroulette, and even testwebcam. My webcam, albeit not a very expensive webcam, is quite decent quality, the box claims that it is 2.0 megapixels but... I'm not too sure. However-- When using this webcam on flash sites, the quality drops - it seems - from 640 x 480 to a measly 160 x 120. I get a very pixelated image from the webcam, but using it in cheese it works perfectly fine, at 640 x 480.
The webcam also works on windows, and the quality is fine on flash sites. But, I wouldn't want the only reason to be using windows to be chatroulette.
Here are some screenshots comparing the qualities, the first being a screenshot of the webcam in use on http://www.testwebcam.com, and the second being a screenshot of the webcam in use in cheese.

I probably look like a bit of an idiot in both of the pictures, apologies for that. :D
If anybody can give me any help whatsoever about getting the quality higher in flash it would be very greatly appreciated, thank you anyone that can help.
