Webcam for Delicious Library

by glyonfos Feb 23, 2011 6:16AM PST

I am using a Mac Pro v1.1 running OS 10.6.6 and would like to use a webcam for book bar-code scanning for Delicious Library 2. I have been unable to get the Rosewill RCM-3640 webcam to work with either the Delicious Library 2 or macam 0.9.2. Since neither the Mac Cine-display or NEC monitors have built-in webcams, I have to use an external device.

I would appreciate your advice and suggestions. Should I try a different webcam such as a Logitech?

Many thanks.
Glenn

you may even be able to find the original Apple iSight camera that was introduced some years ago.

It is a Firewire device and behaved very well with other programs, including Delicious Library.

Should get you started.

Failing that, one of the Logitech cameras should be fine
