Re: Anybody can use webcam in skype in 8.1?
I had a similar problem under linux the other day, if that helps. I ended up setting the LD_PRELOAD environment variable to modify how skype gets linked at runtime. In bash: LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype Again that's on linux, so it's probably not relevant, or even if it is, the shared object file will be in a different location. Sorry I'm not of much help. Maybe someone else can do better. -Moduok- On 7/17/10, Yuri y...@rawbw.com wrote: I am trying to make webcam work with skype. webcamd-0.1.14 creates functioning device /dev/video0 that works in mplayer and pwcview. Skype complained that some VIDIOCAP flag is missing. So I applied the patch: I patched kernel with this patch: linux_v4l.diff from http://leidinger.net/FreeBSD/linuxolator/ and copied over compat/linux/linux_videodev.h from the trunk. Skype now says there is vidio0 device, but video test fails and image isn't passed to the peers. Did you succeed with video in skype?

I am not sure now what skype is doing without it's Linux version, why it doesn't complain.
