You'll notice none of those are "QuickCam Web."

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?

I recollect that someone said that whilst the Lego camera *is* a Logitech
device, the USB identification info for the 'badge-engineered' Lego device
is different from that of the Logitech equivalent.

Hence, the camera may not be *recognised* even though the driver can
actually drive it as a Logitech device.

Treat this as 'hearsay' evidence though - I only dimly recollect the
conversation and I don't have a Lego camera to check that theory.

(...) On Windoze the Logitech drivers identify the camera as a Logitech QuickCam Web just fine. (22 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)
