videoout to another application

Timo's icon

Hello
I try to edit live video from my webcam and send it to another application. So I could have the video (coming from max) as an input in skype....
Is this possible?

With jit.qt.videout you can send a video to an external camera, but is it possible to make this in the computer.
I imagine something like soundflower for video. Take the output and give it to another program (skype...)

Lot's of thanks for your help!

the closest thing that comes to mind is Syphon: http://syphon.v002.info but you cannot create a proxy input device for Skype with syphon, the application has to support it.

Possibly with Camtwist? Syphon routes video around but probably not into Skype.
