Media player,
Pc suite,
Mass storage,
or
PictBrige .

I was asking 4peace if what he knew was how to use the PictBrige option as a webcam. because he said yes to funyin's question tongue You grab?

Re: Using Phone As Webcam by MrInfo1(m): 10:37pm On Aug 19, 2008
Dual but the poster's question was not about any third party application na. I taught the poster asked thus "if she selects webcam from her list, does it mean her phone can work as a webcam?" and since 4peace confirmed that she could, i had to ask 4peace how to because i am also havn a similar doubt wit my phone's pictbrige option (too). Shey you grab now huh?

Re: Using Phone As Webcam by DualCore1: 10:48pm On Aug 19, 2008
yes popz, i grab. kolo
PictBridge is an industry standard from the Camera & Imaging Products Association (CIPA) for direct printing. it allows images to be printed directly from digital cameras to a printer, without having to connect the camera to a computer.

@Funyin
yes,your phone could be used as web cam. But you have to download and install the software to your phone. Nothing is impossible.
Though haven't tried it,but those who made the software didn't sure make it for fancy.Abi. grin
Re: Using Phone As Webcam by just2nice(m): 5:48am On Aug 20, 2008
