Hello

To play MOV/3GP in windows media player I can install MOV alternative.

The same way, does any one know some kind of webcam alternative which I can install and do webcamming without having a webcam?

I will really appreciate if someone could help me out here.

Thank You

SplitCam (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-webcam-video-and-audio/SplitCam-Clone-and-split-video-capture-driver-Web-Cam-Video-camera-TV-tuner-TV-IN.htm) is a free virtual video clone and split video capture driver for connecting several applications to a single video capture source.

Usually, if you have a web camera or video camera connected to your computer, you cannot use it in more than one application at the same time, and there is no standard Windows options that makes it possible. Split Camera driver allows you to easily multiply your web-camera (any models), video camera ( any model: analog or ditial : VHS, DV), TV-IN, TV-tunner, in a video conference software like ICQ, Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, Skype (http://all-streaming-media.com/non-streaming/Skype-Free-worldwide-calls-over-the-Internet-Cheap-international-phone-calls-to-landlines-and-mobiles-Windows-Linux-MacOS-X-Pocket-PC.htm) Video, Camfrog, AOL AIM, Pal Talk, or whatever... It allows you to broadcast your camera to many users at a time.

You may choose almost any video source as a primary video capture device (video camera, USB Web Cam, TV-IN, TV-tunner, video file or image file).

Hello

I know one such program.

Try virtual web camera software like Fake webcam (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-webcam-video-and-audio/FakeWebCam-virtual-web-cam-software-Broadcast-video-without-webcam.htm) or webcam simulator.

I have recorded few videos of myself and now I just play them on skype (http://all-streaming-media.com/non-streaming/Skype-Free-worldwide-calls-over-the-Internet-Cheap-international-phone-calls-to-landlines-and-mobiles-Windows-Linux-MacOS-X-Pocket-PC.htm) using fake webcam (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-webcam-video-and-audio/FakeWebCam-virtual-web-cam-software-Broadcast-video-without-webcam.htm) at my workplace. None of my chat buddy could figure out that its not me but just a video.

Send me a PM if you need further info. :)

I use fake webcam for this purpose. It’s just a tiny program that does it all.

Fake Webcam (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-webcam-video-and-audio/FakeWebCam-virtual-web-cam-software-Broadcast-video-without-webcam.htm)

Use fake webcam to play you pre-recorded videos on instant messengers (Yahoo, MSN, Paltalk, camfrog etc) while chatting. It can even broadcast one single movie to all the messengers at the same time. Pretend like a teenage girl or a 50 year old male, your chat mate wont be able to figure out that its not you.

It enables you to:
* Play pre-recorded videos without even having a physical webcam.
* Shared your video clips with family and friends through your instant messengers.

I use “Video2Webcam” to broadcast video clips on Yahoo Messenger almost every day. And my chat mates are very entertained with my home made videos, funny moments of friends or family, and my holiday clips, etc. It works somewhat like a plugin or shell of the instant messengers (ICQ, MSN, AIM, Paltalk, Camfrog etc) while streaming. You even don’t need a real camera because of this fake webcam.

Tired of seeing only a face and a boring wall behind, why not try this virtual cam? You can download it from http://www.video2webcam.com
