Annoying transfering problem with webcam/software

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.webcam (More info?)

Hi there...

I've finally got my PS2 Eye Toy camera to function as a webcam. It works
fine, if you got the right driver.
But there's an annoying problem, when i've have taken a series of snapshots
and want to transfer them to an apllication, such as "Imaging":
I can only transfer one snapshot at a time, and when i've done that, the
webcam software shuts down and goes to "imaging" and displays my single
snapshot. all the others are gone for good, it seems!

Is there any way around this, should i maybe use another application for
snapshots?

Ok, sounds great, and actually i think i have that program on a magazine
distributed cd-rom somewhere. I'll give it a try, thanks.
