recommended webcam or dv cam

ok, the real requirement with xp seems to be that you need to use the original (vfw) drivers rather than the win xp video capture drivers (wdm -these may be reversed).

Have a read of this link if you want to see if this is the reason you are having trouble... http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/27322.htm Good luck, and happy vj-ing!

Have a great day

About Webcam DV: I haven't got it - what advantage does it have over simply capturing DV stream in Resolume? It seems it's just a soft for live streaming from DV signal.

BTW have anyone used Orange Micro Firewire or USB2 webcam with Resolume? It must be much better than ordinary USB webcam.

I mentioned elsewhere that i have a lifeview tv tuner card and it works fine in Resolume, I can even have TV channels feed it. Has practically no cpu overhead - I'm wondering how that compares to usb and firewire. Pretty low cost on eBay. Just look for a tvtuner with VFW drivers.

I wouldn't supposed a webcam package exists with a video input?

I have a Panasonic DV camera, if i keep the dv door open it will not go in to power save mode.
