(...) My initial search did reveal that tidbit Lar, but since I was alredy the owner of a Logitech cam, I was already in posession of the drivers. Those didn't work, so I started the hunt for drivers that might. 12 different camera drivers later, (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) The camera is a Logitech QuickCam Web, the round variety. I don't think there's any difference in the electronics between the square or the round ones though.

(...) But have you tried these drivers? Backwards compatability is often present in newer drivers. Also, has anyone tried plugging the camera in with iMovie open to see if it's drivers will recognize the camera? Matt (23 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

The Studios software can actually work with other cams (at least it works with my Creative cam). The trick is to alter the Registry entry to the name of your other cam (noted from System Control Panel). Likewise, I would guess that the Pinnacle (...) (23 years ago, 19-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)
