Eyetoy as a webcam, for Windows XP & Vista!
Hello im doing another tutorial but this time it's how to use a eyetoy as a webcam. The reason im doing this is because i saw a youtube video and i saw a person using a eyetoy as a camera so i did some research. It's been out a while but i wanted to share it with the consolespot network.
Requierments:
- Namtai Eyetoy (
SLEH-00031) Or Logitech
(SLEH-00030)
(SLEH-00030 Driver contributed by
Silver-Wings-Of-Gold) Thanks man
- Windows (TESTED ON VISTA, WORKS)
- Drivers (in zip attached)
Step1: Download and extract the attached zip containing the drivers. place the folder "
eyetoy drivers" Or "
sony_eye_toy" which is in the zip file onto your C drive, so it's like this -
C:/eyetoy drivers OR
C:/sony_eye_toy
Step2: Plug in your Eyetoy and follow the instructions below.
- When you plug in your eyetoy this will come up:
Select "
No, not this time" then click next.
- Then it will ask you were to download the software from.
Select "
specific location (advanced)" then click next.
- Then there will be a few options to select, use the image below to match up the settings.
And were it says "
include this location in the search" select were you put the drivers, so it would be "
C:/eyetoy drivers" or were ever you placed your downloaded files, so select that and click next.
- When you've clicked next it will come up with a warning window.
Click "
Continue Anyway"
- After that it will come up with another unknown warning
Click "
ok"
- When you've done that it will ask you for your power freuquency settings.
Click "YES" for Europe, Australla & India. Or "NO" for American, Japan, Korean & Taiwan.
- When you've selected your power freuquency settings your done!
To see if the installation has worked try the "
VIDCAP32.EXE" file which will be located in this folder - "
C:/eyetoy drivers"
