using a dig camera as webcam

[bassboy_pete]

Hey,

I am interested in using my Sony P10 digital camera as a webcam. I am not sure if this work however. The camera does have the A/V connection and I do have a ATi capture card. Is there any software required or anything? How do I do this if it is possible? Thanks

with the cheapo 50 dollars samclub cam I had before XP would do it just through the USB port. I think it can do that with pretty much any cam.

That's how mine is. I plus my cheapo digi cam in the USB port and it has a new icon under My Computer for it...

my camera doesn't quite work like that. When I plug i in through the usb and turn it on, it just says on the camera screen "usb mode". I don't think it will work through the usb port. I was wondering if it would work more through my tv capture card.
