skipping/storing late frames

[AbdelRahmanNasser20]

I am having trouble collecting the first frame. Instead it starts collecting at the second frame.

Frames array [ 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31]

Every now and then it starts collecting frames around 3-6 and sometimes it skips frames or stores the same frames.

This frame number, is it one that comes directly from the camera? If yes, do not worry about that. This is fine. In general, we will have applications when camera is working all the time and we start recording for a short period of time. So we will never really start with frame 0. However, skipping frames is an issue.

How do you know that it skips frames or saves identical frames? How can we test if frames are indeed the same or if it skipped some? I do not trust the frame number that the camera supplies.

Similar and skipped frame rates.
