Leopard Workarounds

Programs written to the new QuickTime 7.2 QTKit Capture APIs, which includes most Apple iApps included with Leopard, do work with CamCamX. However, a small workaround must be observed:

1. Start up CamCamX normally.
2. Under the "A" menu (Camera A), choose "No Camera".
3. Now start the other Camera application (ie. QuickTime Pro).
4. Now both the iSight (CamCamX) and Built-in iSight input should be visible in the Leopard App.
5. Choose iSight (CamCamX) as the input in the Leopard App.
6. Now, bring the CamCamX application to the foreground.
7. Under the "A" menu, choose "Built-in iSight".

This method works with all the Apple applications we've tested except for PhotoBooth and QuartzComposer.
