Hi everybody !

I have installed mobile webcam on the phone. And on the pc. I connect the phone with INfrared and it works, i see the live video on the pc.
Then I installed Luminosity webcam on the pc. IN a way that i can use it with chat applications.
BUT when i start Windows messanger and try to set up the webcam , the messanger got frozen !
Do you think is there any way to use it like this?

Help me please, or should i use any other software instead of Luminosity?

Thanx in advance.

I have had the same problem with MSN messenger. Try using Yahoo messenger. I have found that it works great!! One more thing IR is so jumpy and not even worth it. Try bluetooth.

I've downloaded SoftCam for the PC but when I've tried to install it, it told me that it works only with Win 95/98, but I'm with XP ? What I have to do and are there any proper solutions for that problem. I need to use my 3650 as a webcam desperately. Help. Thanks in advance :-x

true that. Those are my thoughts exactly. I tried putting in hotmail accounts into Yahoo and no luck. I have heard from that other thread i posted earlier that there is a software called webcamXP that works better than softcam. I heard it doesnt make msn freeze, but I haven't tried it yet.

so my last post was before I had a bluetooth card. Now I have one and the image is still soooo slow. It it just me or is anyone else experiencing serious lag between phone and s60 over bluetooth?

i cant run softcam with my phone not even connected, messenger freezes when i click use as webcam, close mesenger then softcam pops up, it has 100% nothing to do with my fone, softcam jus takes the image on the monitor whihc is created with mobile,
