Mac or Windows?

That just looks like it records the screen. Are you sure it puts it as a webcam too?

Ohohoh… Misunderstood your question there. As for realtime streaming, I dont think thats possible. You could use Coffee Cup in conjunction with WebWallpaper for a similar effect

EDIT: Specifically this product made by Coffee Cup.

I don’t think you understand now, either. Sorry, I’m so bad at explaining stuff. What I need is a free program that lets me stream my computer’s screen as if I were streaming a webcam. Like so the screen shows up as a webcam. Like a camera driver or something, that isn’t really a camera, it just streams the screen.

Ah, I understand what you’re saying. No, not that I know of. I’ll let you know if I come across one.

No, that didn’t work. I give up. Thanks anyway.

Do you mean on a broadcasting site such as BlogTV? I would recommend ManyCam. Or Cam Twist for Macs.

kevinchai's avatar

Yeah, I had heard of Cam Twist, and that’s exactly what I want. Unfortunately my mac sucks really bad, (it’s OLD) so I can’t get that going. I’ll have to check out the other one if it’s the same sort of thing.

F YEAH
Perfect! thanks everybody!
