Re: Camcorder for streaming

How? I'm using the Hitachi GX3300A DVDCAM and have a USB attached to the camera and PC. How do I get video? I tried it with Yahoo Messenger and get nothing.

Plz help

Well Blutach I thought I had put in the wrong place to begin with. So now since you corrected me on the error of my ways do you have an answer or not

[paglamon]

Connect ur cam to pc through USB.In Yahoo Messenger configure the Webcam so that the camera source is your cam.Sign IN.Then MESSENGER/My Webcam/File/Preferences/Camera source.

Re: Streaming Using Camcorder

Thanks but I did try that. The cam is not being read by Messenger. Do you have any other suggestions how to change that?

[paglamon]

Is the cam recognised by other programs(when connected to USB)?

[maxxoutt]

No its not

[paglamon]

So the problem is not in YM.Try to get USB Driver for your cam model.Did any CD come with it?
