Hello. I Read this forum quite a bit to get help with problems but this is the first time I have needed to post to get help. Would be great if someone could lend a hand!
This is my situation. I want to do live broadcasting of my DJ sets over the internet. I use an external monitor from my Macbook and I have the macbook lid closed.
I know the iSight is a very capable webcam but in my setup my laptop is closed and I need the webcam situated above my turntables anyway. The built in iSight just isn't practical.
So my question is, what would I need to buy in order to run a external webcam while the macbook is closed and using an external monitor? Will any 3rd party webcam work? Or do i have to buy the apple external iSight?
Does OSX support external webcams on macbooks?
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks so much,
Lloyd.
