The Logitech Quickcam Vision Pro combines amazing optics with technology rarely seen on traditional webcams. It is a clear winner over competing products.
I just purchased the Logitech Quickcam Vision Pro for Mac. I would like to try to do a web cam interview between myself and Windows/OS X users, for a podcast. This is all new to me, so I don't really know where to start. I need to somehow record a video stream. Is it possible to do this with the new GTalk video option, or does this need to be done in Skype? Is Skype the best cross-platform app to use for something like this? How do I record the video stream I am receiving from the person I am interviewing?
At this time, I am mainly using Linux Mint 6 (Felicia) on an IBM ThinkCentre tower and Ubuntu 8.04 on a G5 PPC Mac.
