How to use integrated camera? T61

I have an integrated camera, and I tried following the instructions lenovo suggests (opening the scanner/camera folder in the control panel) but no camera comes up! Also, I can't make movies either. I have windows vista so everything is different from the instructions lenovo gave me. Help!

To first test the camera, you can use something like Windows Live Messenger.  If you enter the tools menu, you can use the "adjust webcam settings" option to test the camera.  The green light next to the lens comes on to tell you its active and it shows you the picture being captured.
After that, you just open the app you want to use and its the application's responsibility to use the camera feed.  Windows doesn't provide movie capture software by default if I recall correctly.

  • Using integrated camera with Windows Live Messenger

    Hello everyone
    I've just got a MacBook Pro and wondered if anyone could tell me how to use the camera facility with MSN please?
    Many thanks.

    ... work with any version of windows live messenger?
    MSN Messenger for Mac does not support video except via Office Communications Server 2007 (usually paid for by commercial enterprises rather than individual users). However, it is possible to video with your friends who use the PC version of the MSN Messenger family of apps. Here are a couple of ways you can try:
    (1) As suggested by Defcom, take a look at   aMSN   and   Mercury
    Either can do webcam video with your built-in iSight.
    They work a bit differently, so use whichever you find easiest or most reliable on your MBA.
    (2) As an alternative, because your iNtel Mac can use Boot Camp, VMware Fusion™, or Parallels™ to run Windows® software, you can choose which method you want to use, add the required software to your iNtel Mac (if you have not already done so), and then install and use the same Windows® Messenger application that your contacts are using to video chat with them.
    The Windows drivers for your built-in iSight and your other Mac hardware are on the disk with Boot Camp so, after you have installed Windows, you can install the iSight driver and use your built-in iSight if you like. If you need more help on this, search or post in Boot Camp discussions category
    (3) If your friends are willing to try something "new and improved" (does NOT work with Messenger):
    you can both install and try a different video chat app such as Google Talk or Skype.

  • How to access Integrated camera from Windows 7 - ThinkPad X301?

    Could someone please tell me how to start the integrated camera after installing the driver in Windows 7? I could see the device driver from Device Manager stated that it is properly installed and working fine but I had gone all the program interface to see where to start it proves to no avail. It is unlike Windows XP where it can be accessed from Accessories.

  • How to use Phone camera for live streaming rather than using WireCast camera in Live streaming using Azure Media Services

    Hi,
    am planning to develop a live streaming app using C# and xaml.
    I have gone through the below sample and am able to stream the live content using wireacst camera.
    Azure Media Services Live Streaming Sample
    But i want to use Phone camera to stream the live video rather using wirecast camera.
    How can i use that? How to get the published URL from the C# code, is there any API to get that?
    Anybody please help me
    Regards,
    Santhosh

    Hello,
    There are no in box components that will allow you to transmit captured video from a Windows Phone device to Azure Media Services. You will need to create you own implementation. You can do this by creating a custom Media Foundation sync that can plug into
    the MediaCapture element's pipeline. You will then need to modify the captured and compressed video to align to one of the two protocols that Azure Media services can use. At this time Azure Media services can use either Smooth Streaming or RTMP for ingestion.
    You will need to create your own packager (or find compatible packager code from a 3rd party) to package the MP4 encoded data into the necessary format.
    Here is an example of how to create a custom Media Foundation sync (please note you must write your Media Foundation components using C++ MoCOM. We do not support Media Foundation components written in managed languages):

    I hope this helps,

  • How to use the camera kit

    Hi does anyone knows how to use the canera kit ? What are the other software that need to download? Thx

    Hi,
    You don't need any software to use it. If you connect your camera through the camera connection kit to the iPad (either by USB or just the SD card), the app Photos will open and you will see the multimedia content on your camera and have the opportunity to select what you want to import on your iPad.

  • How to use the cam as a web cam

    How could i use the cam , which is already installed in the mac book pro as a web cam ?

    To talk to people?
    The iChat application will allow that.
    If you have a .mac account, then you can use that as your ichat user id and password, otherwise you can also use AIM - go here to create a user id and password and then enter them into iChat (remember to specify that it's an AIM account)..
    https://reg.my.screenname.aol.com/cqr/registration/initRegistration.psp?lang=en&locale=us&createSn=1&sitedomain=ww w.aim.com&siteState=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.aim.com%2Fgetaim%2Fcongratsd2.adp&mcAuth=%2FBcAG0dPhpgAAPd%2BA%2F8ZYUdPhtQIH1rLc92KTAoAAA%3D% 3D
    If that link doesn't work, then go to www.aim.com and click the button which says "get a screen name"
    Once done, anyone who has a .mac or AIM id can enter your user id and chat with you.
    Hope that helps.
    Best of luck.
    PS - iChat is the application with the speech bubble icon.

  • SL with VMFusion & WinXP-how to use iSight cam in Winxp

    I was trying to follow directions for how to make isight camera work on windows side and got stuck where it talks about putting in(*it says Leopard, but I've updated from d/l to SL) CD as I did a DOWNLOAD/install of SL so where are the files kept? Here's the list and I wonder how to continue if file someplace on a download-see my questions next to[*]:
    Insert the MacOS X Leopard disc in the DVD drive.
    Open VMware Fusion.
    Select the virtual machine running Windows and click Play.
    Ensure that the CD drive is connected to the virtual machine.
    From the Fusion application menu, click Virtual Machine > CD/DVD > Connect CD/DVD.
    [*I started here]Connect the camera to the virtual machine. Click Virtual Machine > USB > Connect Apple Built-in iSight.
    [*I did this]When the Found New Hardware wizard appears in Windows, click Cancel.
    From the Windows desktop, open My Computer.
    [*stuck here, D is CD drive, so where can I find the next DRIVERS from download?] Ctrl-click WindowsSupport (D:), then click Explore.
    [*where is this on d/l?] Navigate to D:/Boot Camp/Drivers/Apple.
    Double-click AppleiSightInstaller.exe.
    Follow the onscreen prompts.
    Click Finished. The Apple iSight camera is now ready for use.
    ----or if all of this makes no sense, does anyone having same hardware know how to make VMwareFuison(vs. 2.0.5-older vs)/winxp see my isight camera?
    Thanks ahead for ALL help!
    p.s.Reason: trying to find some program to do video chat from macbook to person on pc. I tried ichat, and have only visual(I can see and hear them, they can only see me), for some reason after snowL.upgrade sound doesn't work in ichat.(all volumes up, sound settings checked);I tried AIM on windows side thru VMWareFusion/winxp and can't find my isight cam.

    The Boot Camp drivers are located on the SL DVD, but they are only accessible from within Windows. If you open Boot Camp Assistant and print out the documentation that may help you get an idea of what's required for Windows when booted directly rather than through the VM. And you might reread whatever information you were using to be sure you got the instructions right.
    But the Apple Discussions is a user-to-user help site for Apple products. There is no help forum here for VM Fusion. There is a forum for Windows and for Boot Camp. But your question is unrelated to OS X and unrelated to Installation and Setup of OS X. Therefore, you should either post in the Windows forum here or go back to the VMWare site to look for help.

  • How to use video camer as Webcam?

    I have a Sony PD150 and want to use it as a webcam. Does anybody know how to do this? Can this be accomplished with some free software?
    Thanks
    chephoto

    Plug the camera into the mac via firewire. Put the camera into camera mode - as opposed to VCR mode.
    Open iChat. It should recognize any firewire input videocamera. iSight is firewire.
    The problem you will have, depending on your application, is that after being in standby mode for a while, with no action, will force to camera to sleep. Maybe you can tweak this in the PD150 though and force it to supress the sleep mode. Don't know.
    But you've already got everything you need - hardware/software related. Just a matter of whether or not the potential quirks can be eliminated/dealt with.
