    Hallo Luca !
    I could install the chess cam program together with the virtual com-program and the DGT-driver on
    Windows XP-32 and Windows-8-64bit.
    But the Cam Chess program only works on WindowsXP for me.
    I can capture a video/picture from my wooden board.
    Bigger problems arise with the calibration of the captured video/pictures.
    After a lot of trials with the Calibration panel i got (after start recording) the message "incorrect move", when i made a move with a piece (pawn etc.) on my wooden board.
    But: the piece-move on my wooden board is correct (c2c4 etc.)!
    So what is the sense of this message ? What will it say me ???

    What works is:
    the (virtual) board on the left side of the program can be clicked by the mouse (first click on the old position, second click on the new position).
    So i can change the figures' positions and the position-change is send to Arena or Fritz via the DGT-Board-Driver and the DGT-board in these programs.

    But that never cannot be the main feature of a Cam-capture program, i think !

    I hope, Olivier can make some remarks about the background of the message "incorrect move".

    Walter
