iCam with Skype
« on: May 28, 2010, 09:51:07 PM »
I have the iCam program on a netbook with Skype.  I tried to use Skype tonight and it told me I had an unknown video error.  I took the iCam program off and Skype worked great.  How can I have both on this netbook.

Try a program called ManyCam. It's free, and I think it'll do what you want.

Thanks for the info.  I did find out that when I "xed" out of iCam on the computer that it didn't shut the program down.  Skype won't work with the program still running.  I stopped the camera on my notepad and Skype worked.

ManyCam might let you "duplicate" the camera so that you can use it with both icamsource AND Skype at the same time.
