You have to use a firewire camera which can be used with iChatAV. Skype does not have the ability to use a webcam on the Mac side. They say they are working on it but that was 6 months ago.

However, I was flipping the channels the other day and saw the tail end of a technology program where someone was saying you could use your camcorder as a really GREAT quality net cam. Will that work with my mini? And, I have an older (not digital) camcorder is there a way I can hook the thing up? Thought it was worth a shot asking here... y'all seem to have the answers! -stuart Louisville At-home Dads (L.A.D.s) Bringing together stay-at-home fathers, their children and their families. 502-426-5376 LouisvilleLADS-owner at yahoogroups.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
