How to use a JVC Recorder as a webcam?

• Im starting to get guitar lessons online and need a webcam, But I cant afford a new webcam, and I need something that can deliver good quality and sound. I have done this before but using a capture cam to deliver both sound and video, but since I moved to win7, IT isnt compatable... Is there any software or method out there that I can use to do this? Thanks

• Answer:

  If your JVC hooks up via Firewire and you computer can hook up to this camcorder you should be good to go. To get better audio, get a SM 58 Mike, with a XML to 3.5mm cable. That can hook into your computer and your camcorder, if it has a Mic jack. You can get a Firewire card for your computer, for about $30. Pay no more than $10 for a 4 pin to 6 pin firewire cable To see if it works, open Live Messenger and got to menu and audio video settings, turn the camcorder on and if it works, you are ready to go to see how I do it visit my sites http://asimplelife.ca/my.html http://www.asimplelife.ca/boss.html and http://asimplelife.ca/light.html
