Can I use my old Sony Handycam TRV815 as a web cam?
- by Optimal Solutions
Has anyone ever used their old Sony Handycam (or maybe any older hand-held camcorder) as a web cam? As in streaming the live video from the cam to a web server (local or remote/Internet).
My TRV815 has a pretty darn good picture quality for its time.. Via USB or Ethernet. It has S-Video but I think that is input. It has RCA out (white/red for audio and yellow for video) and I have used that to display to my TV.
I have web cams already but was wondering if I could put this one to use also just for kicks..
