![]() ![]() I was recommended iVCam and after reading reviews of other available apps this seemed as the winner. There are several apps that allow you to this. So the idea of using it as a webcam did not come to my mind. While I have not so old iphone I pretty much use it as an alarm clock, camera and occasionally as a telephone. Yes, we live in a time where everyone has smartphones that are connected to the internet and can record high definition videos. It dawned on me just after one of the Magic players said he used his iPhone as a webcam. Since I was unable to make it work I started looking for other alternatives (note, that in the end I made it work thanks to OBS Virtual Cam (read below))įinding an alternative without buying a webcam seemed bleak but that was probably just me not thinking in today's technological terms. The microphone though works everywhere without a problem and is actually better than the integrated one in my ROG Strix G series notebook. I could see the camera option on Discord (and other software) but it simply didn't 'initiate'. The driver though didn't enable the camera for all applications and even exposing the camera as a DirectShow object didn't help. In the past I had a hard time finding something that would actually work and so I ended up with a CL Eye Driver. The best place to check what is available is PSMoveService at GitHub. If you want to get the camera working there are several drivers you can get, some are actually free. Under Windows 7, it seems to work just fine and probably will work with older version of Win10 as well). The problem is that PS3 Eye is a Sony Playstation product and was not intended for use in Windows (Win10 in my case) and that is why programs like Skype do not recognize the camera (note, rather it stopped working with a certain Windows 10 update. It worked just fine for what I bought it for so I decided to give it a try for recording Magic as well. The camera records at 640x480 and 60 FPS and does quite a good job for just few bucks. I didn't want to spend too much money on a webcam and I was recommended using PS3 Eye camera which can under some conditions work under Windows. Since I am a rhythm game player and sometimes record videos of me playing I needed a 60 FPS camera. I have an integrated webcam in my notebook but it is not sufficient for paper Magic nor anything where the camera needs to track movement. I wanted to give it a try as well but I had to overcome certain technical difficulties. Paper Magic players can't go to their local game stores to play face to face and that is why some decided to try Magic over Skype or other service like Whereby or Hangouts. During quarantine we are stuck home and it's up to us to figure out how to have some fun.
