Hi there, newbie to the forums here,

I've been searching all over on google for a way to run my Sony Camcorder as a webcam. Right now I'm hooked up via Firewire. iMovie and iChat recognize and view my camera. This is where it gets a little bit more complicated. The main setup I want to use to broadcast, I will be on http://www.tinychat.com. This website uses Adobe Flash Player to run and broadcast everything. Is there just no hope that Flash will allow me to view my DV camera? Or is there any sort of tweaking I can do that would allow for Flash Player to pick up my DV camera as there?

Oh, before I forget, my camera is a Sony DCR-TRV22. There is no software that I can find anywhere that would help me in this.

Any advice would be appreciated

Edit: I would also either use this on Firefox or Safari--I'm pretty sure it's a Adobe Flash player problem, but I may be wrong. When I go to choose a camera, it allows for a "DV Camera Device"
