Hi, I have a Sony EVI D100 that works. I have a Visca USB Cable and an s-Video cable and video cable. I will be connecting it to my MacBook Pro. What else do I need to use this Cam with my Mac to feed video to the mac? I also have a Mini Display Port To AV/CVBS/RCA/S-Video Converter Mac

Hi,

I am sorry to hear regarding the trouble.

These webcams are really sensitive to power fluctuations. Unfortunately, there is no fuse in these cams.If you ever have a chance to dissemble these webcams, you would only find few wires round a small PCB board which control the function. However, the power board is not repairable and once burnt or at fault, new webcam is on the cards. I am sorry to be a bearer of bad news, as i am sure this is not what you want to hear. The only thing you could try is to re install the software to make sure it is not a software glitch.Sometimes, these might cause software to get corrupted unless replacement is on the cards. If this is under warranty, you could contact the seller and see if you could get it replaced / repaired without any charge.

Let me know,if needed further assistance.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

you need a video capture device.

Visca cable is only for camera control, it does not transmit video signal. You will need a USB video capture device and a s-video or composite video cable. Make sure the device you choose has the drivers for your version of Windows.
