Default 1394 Firewire and Messenger/Netmeeting

I do not own a Web-cam, but I do own a CamCorder that
connects via 1394 Firewire. How do I get this to work
with Messenger or Netmeeting?

I hate when Microsoft Messenger/Netmeeting advertises
that Video will work, but they never say a DAMN THING
about 1394 Firewire.

Someone please help me!
Thanks

Greetings Keith,

It won't work in Netmeeting, however in may work in Windows Messenger -- just hook it up, go
through the Audio Tuning Wizard (open the main Messenger window, click the Tools menu, then
Audio Tuning Wizard) and during the wizard choose your camera or "Microsoft AV/DV".

WebCamDv, a small software app from OrangeMicro, will
convert your incoming DV stream to one that Netmeeting can
reliably use. $20, as I recall...

Please not that I have NOT been able to successfully use
my Firewire camcorder OR the converted stream noted above
with Windows Messenger 4.7.2009. Go figure.
