Plugged it in, fiddled, and discovered my Dad's "free" webcam doesn't have a driver for 64 bit Windows 7 systems. On the upside the microphone worked surprisingly well, and I did find a report that the webcam works under Linux. At this point I'd usually grab the source code for the 32bit driver and see if it compiles, and if the issues are simple fix them, but this is Windows so..... Anyone recommend a good Webcam for 64 bit Windows 7 for which the drivers are already included or autoinstall? Built in microphone a bonus, but I have a reasonable one I can send anyway. Free webcam for the right recommendation ;
I have installed a few of these: http://www.huehd.com/Win 7 supported out box and... they give decent output - several schools I support use them on winXp/win7 with animation software (Zu3D, IcanAnimate etc)
They can be bought on Amazon and ebay. Dave -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
