Hi Guys,

I am tying to use an analog camera as a webcam in Ubuntu Jaunty. I would like to use it in Skype. I was wondering if anyone has done something like this and can give me some clue as to how to do it.

Specifically, I would like to know what Tvcard brand and model number works. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best,
Ari

I did it, my tv card has a bt878 chip and I have to set it to PAL and Composite1 in xawtv before I start skype.
