How do i use my camera phone as webcam on Skype, Yahoo or YouTube?
Question Posted Friday June 12 2009, 11:12 pm
well, the subject for my question pretty much says it.. how do i use my nokia 5320 camera phone as a webcam, like on skype?? please give me details, because i've tried heaps of things, like attached my phone with the cable and switching on my camera on my phone, so my compute can recognise a camera or something and that doesnt work at all..
if you are wondering, i already have installed the PC suite for my phone, if thats needed here..
thank you so much to whoever that answers this, i've been asking loads of people, even the people at the phone shops and its just useless. thank you very much.
That is the main app I have found for this. There is a free trial, so you can give Mobiola Web Camera 3 a whirl with no obligation. This way you can see if it really does work to turn your Nokia 5320 camera phone into a webcam.
It says it does (see specs below.)
May I also suggest, if you haven't already, that you get a bluetooth connection going to your PC. That way you have the whole bluetooth mobile webcam thing going on and can be rid of the USB cables for your phone.
Have fun converting your camera phone into a web-camera phone. :-)
