I've got a amd 2.8 64 bit system with win xp sp 2. And a pinnacle 100e pctv usb2 box to connect to the tv and my Handycam. How can I use the handycam as a webcam ? any1 knows this ? the resolution a handycam offers is many times more than even an expensive webcam .
ya! ur right. Handycam rees. is much better. But think of one thing. A webcam costs ~500 when a handycam is 20000 ie, 40 times!
BTW, u CAN use handycam as webcam. I hav done it. Using Yahoo messenger. It detects the handycam just like any other webcam. Res. is good, but refresh rate is bad.... ie, it looks like a alideshow...
How did u do it ? Tell me so I can also try , I'm using yahoo ver 7.02 the cost is def more for a handycam , but then we can use a handycam for lots more , a webcam is just a webcam
Well u can go in the webcam preferences of ur yahoo msngr and change the source to tht of ur handycam and then u r done!!!!
Maybe coz u dont have video source from which msngr can capture the video.
@harish:have u installed the drivers for the handycam?
Hey guys my fault...actually i was try this with my digital camera.We try it with the handycam when its back from my friend
Anyways isn't this possible with my Digital Cam?it has video too...
