I have an SkyIPCam 747W installed as a standalone security camera on my office ethernet network. I want to use that camera as a webcam for Yahoo Messenger.<br />
I can view the webcam from my machine in a browser by simply using the private URL address <a href="http://192.168.1.241/" rel="ugc">http://192.168.1.241/</a>&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Is there a way to treat this as a webcam that can be installed via the Windows NT Control Panel for &quot;Scanners and Cameras&quot;? or some other way to make it visble as the Camera Source in Yahoo Messenger 9?<br />

Can I install a standalone network webcam as a local webcam

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.

Windows Networking

A peripheral device is defined as a computer device, such as a keyboard or printer, that is not part of the essential computer (i.e., the memory and microprocessor). These auxiliary devices are intended to be connected to the computer and used in conjunction with it. Examples of external peripherals include mouse, keyboard, printer, monitor, external Zip drive or scanner, while internal peripherals include CD-ROM drive, CD-R drive or internal modem. Today's new devices, such as tablets, smartphones and wearable computing devices are considered peripherals as they can be connected and used on a computer system. The difference, however, is that these devices can run independently of the computer system.
