Using the iSight Camera

I would like to use the built in iSight camera on my Mac book Air with a Windows XP application running under Corssover Mac. Is this possible?

Thanks!

I'm afraid it doesn't work yet.

We have a camera support on Linux which is based on the Video4Linux interface, but obviously that works in a different fashion on MacOS, and we haven't implemented a backend for this yet.

Thanks, Stefan... Any idea when support will be added? I have a video app that runs under Crossover but, of course, I get black video since the camera isn't supported.

I'm sorry, I don't know. You can vote for your application in the application database, so we're reminded that there is interest in webcam support. Honestly few people ask for that. My sense is that the most important apps have native versions, like Skype or other replacements.
