Use your Canon EOS 1000D as Webcam! *UPDATED*

Step 2Creating the webcam

Creating the webcam
Download the VH Screen Capture Driver here: http://www.hmelyoff.com/index.php?section=9
It's free and a useful software solution. After you downloaded it install it.
You can find it now in your startmenu, look at the picture and start the config.
Click on "Create a new one".
Now place your LiveView windows in a good positon where it doesn't annoy you, if you have another monitor place it there(I placed it onto my PSP, tuts are aviable somewhere else). Press the button that's named Region in the lower middle on the window from configuration of VH Screen Capture Driver.
With this tool you select the area of Live View that shows what the camera sees. Close the config and you're done ;-).
Get your messenger on and do some video chat :-)
Have fun.
If you have any questions you can send me a PM or make a comment.
