anybody here using the PS3 eye on a mac , i have seen reviews that say it works with the maccamm drivers i wanted to know if the mic works too , any info would be greatly appreciated. amazon seems to be selling them for a good price and i wanted to know if it works correctly on a mac

Yeah it does work with the MacCam drivers. I have a PSEye and tested it. I can't remember whether the mic works though. Could always try later for you if I remember.

i would really appreciate it if you would check the mic. thanks a ton mate.

It does indeed.

Oh sweet. I knew the mic showed up without the drivers, but i didn't know the camera is useable with the maccam drivers. I assume I can use it with iChat if i did this?

I like showing off whats on my pc screen to a friend whilst editing, so what I usually do is put up a mirror and let the iSight reflect off it, but if this works then I'll just use the PSEye.

Cheers
Steve

Can't you use screen sharing?

Yeah that'd make a hell of a lot more sense.... iChat has screen sharing built right in.. dosnt it?

Apex. said he likes showing what's on his PC screen not what's on his Mac screen.

What he said, I cant edit on a Mac because I use a BlackMagic Intensity card (HDMI I/O) and a 2007 iMac. It's a shame, really. I love FCP.
