iCamSource Does Not See "Video"

[yoyosma]

Working on 2nd Mac/cam setup. Same house, same wifi. This 3Com Home Connect usb webcam runs well with MACAM app on the Mac.

Mac 10.4.11, loaded iCamSource, and the Video field is blank. I've restarted Mac, iCamSource, and unplugged webcam but no luck. Using same username and password as other iCamSource on 1st Mac.

yoyosma - Does the webcam work with other programs (iChat, etc.) on the 10.4.11 computer?

I was able to see it on that program MACAM and thought the webcam was working.  But it did indeed not work in iChat. Found some instructions to try to see it in an app called VideoViewer and no go there either.  Had to spend some time downloading drivers and such for the old webcam but finally did get it to work within iChat and VideoViewer and, therefore, for iCamSource.

Thanks for the nudge in the right direction Stefan!

Glad to hear it!
