The digital camera node interfaces with standard USB cameras (e.g. the Logitech Quickcam) using OpenCV and publishes image data using the [[image_transport]] model, which can automatically generate compressed message types. That is, the theora streaming video compression is only enabled when the image is actually requested compressed, e.g. by calling

 . {{{
/image_view image:=/image_raw theora
}}}

Notice that you have to compile theora separately, i.e. using

 . {{{
rosmake theora_image_transport
}}}
 . {{{
rosmake compressed_image_transport
}}}
