I'll have to check some of those programs out. Since instant messengers have built in cam software, I guess I just need something to replace the Toshiba Camera Assistance Software. A couple of those you posted sound good. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/built-in-webcam#post-5678 Wed, 26 Dec 2007 19:09:30 +0000 taybay 5678@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>Mike, you're being too hasty =P</p> <p>Here is a good program for streaming and motion detection, which you said you've found.<br /> <a href='http://www.yawcam.com/' rel="nofollow">http://www.yawcam.com/</a></p> <p>Here is face recognition security software to mess around with.<br /> <a href='http://www.bananasecurity.com/' rel="nofollow">http://www.bananasecurity.com/</a></p> <p>Here is an online program that lets you mess around with filters and effects like a photo booth. It's a bunch of fun.<br /> <a href='http://www.cameroid.com/' rel="nofollow">http://www.cameroid.com/</a></p> <p>If you want to use your camera for video chat, most instant messengers have the software built in. All you need to do is press the "video" button. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/built-in-webcam#post-5655 Wed, 26 Dec 2007 14:44:27 +0000 michael 5655@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>Right, well, as I keep saying in hardware situations (not meaning to sound rude) you will need to download and install the drivers for your webcam. Since this is built in, you will have to find drivers for the make of your laptop, and then install the Webcam drivers.</p> <p>--<br /> Mike </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/built-in-webcam#post-5642 Wed, 26 Dec 2007 02:12:57 +0000 jmcguire 5642@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>I have a built in webcam on my laptop, but I don't much like the software. I have searched and can only find software to stream it to a website. I was hoping someone could recommend some webcam software for me to us on my own computer. I will only use it to play around with and sometimes use for instant messengers. </p>
