[Webcam-osx-devs] Macam Works

[Thurletta Brown-G. <tm...@va...>]

I just downloaded Macam 0.8.7 and am in an absolute state of shock!
I have an old C-PIX SDC 2000 el-cheapo camera that I had all but trashed  
after getting a really good digital camera. It is a low-resolution camera  
that was advertised as "suitable for email photos" and its PC Cam  
abilities were said in the manual to be limited to PCs only, therefore  
unavailable for Macs. Macam  0.8.7 recognizes the camera as "connected to  
Argus DC-1510 or similar" and it does so without even having batteries  
installed in the camera!!! Both Image Capture and iPhoto 5 recognize the  
camera.

Here are the particulars:
Name = C•PIX
Model = SDC 2000
Vendor ID (from System Profiler) = 10096
Product ID (from System Profiler) = 37152($9120)
Bus Power = 500
Speed: up to 12 mb/sec

Just downloaded iChat AV 2.1 and also installed iChatUSBCam 2.1. Now the  
C•PIX SDC 2000 works as a web cam....on my end at least. Just have to find  
a friend who has a web cam to test out chatting-with-camera, but from all  
indications, this will work.

Other particulars: dual-boot G4 running OS 10.3.9 and 9.2.2.
Thanks for making Macam 0.8.7 available!
