superkona Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Skype is working great here for both video and audio conferencing - for me this was a must have app to consider using osx86 for my fulltime machine. Fullscreen video is faster than it was on XP ! Here is my config Skype 2.0.0.6 for OSX 10.4.8 with Semthex new hybrid kernel "Nebukadnezar" Audio in and video are working via Panasonic NV-GS15 camcorder over USB Audio out using Realtek HDA Mainboard : Gigabyte 8I945PL-G Chipset : Intel i945G/GZ CPU: Pentium 805 D Frequency : 2666 MHz - (current : 3321.81 MHz) Physical Memory : 1024 MB (2 x 512 DDR2-SDRAM ) Video Card : Nvidia Corp GeForce 6500 Hard Disk : Maxtor (82 GB) DVD-Rom Drive : HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-H10A Network Card : Broadcom Corp BCM5789 NetLink Gigabit Ethernet Device Audio : 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milone Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Hi, I use the same skype version with a Canon Dv900. The strange thing is that i couldn't get sound in via my Canon camcorder. I have to use an M-audio Transit (in which I put in a mic). And the strangiest thing is that ichat is able to get both video and audio from my Canon DV cam. Any suggestions? Thanks for the interesting thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lord_muad_dib Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 it's not so strange. it happens to me2 with my mustek 300A webcam we need to wait for a macam driver that enables mic+cam to work together... unfortunately seems that when the cam is already used.. it's mic won't work cos it's used.. and viceversa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milone Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 I understand what you're talking about but remeber that a DV cam is a little bit different compared to a webcam. I don't use nor a macam driver neither other generic webcam drivers. My camcorder is recgnized by the system and, as far as I know, in your configuration your problem is that macam still doesn't support audio.... Anyway thanks for your reply, if you discover more, please, let me know... See you n the italian forum... ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
