Is it possible to use camcorder as a webcam?

yes you can

you need a program from a company called orangeware i think.

you have to buy it unfortunately, it does have a trial but not so great.

If you can't find it just google for "dv cam as web cam" or something to
that effect.

Yes you can. The real screw up is that there's two different driver models
MS has designed. One's WDM and the other (older) VFW. ATI decided to go with
WDM some time ago and it's been a screw around using their video capture
cards as a webcam since.

Netmeeting will not use the ati card (f'n bastards both sides as that's what
I wanted when I bought the card). Messenger will under XP but not under 9x.
