Webcam emulator

Hi, I'm new to the forums, and pretty new to Jitter in general. Anyway, I'm looking for a solution to a project I'm working on. I want to output video from jitter and have it show up as a webcam. In other words, i want to broadcast my video over ichat, AIM etc. Any ideas?

Wojciech Kosma has an external that supposedly allows Max to interface with Skype. Not sure exactly what it's capable of, and the download site is currently down but it may be worth checking back:

Or contacting him directly:

jit.broadcast?
jit.qt.broadcast?

I was thinking of something along those lines. I found some windows software, fakewebcam.exe , or some deal like that advertises to be able to stream video from a URL into MSN/yahoo messenger. Unfortunately I haven't found a decent webcam-faker program that is usable or isn't infested with trojans yet, but either way I think that the video would lag too much. I'm looking for a more direct route.

Perhaps quartz composer and ichat may be a solution? I didn't install it yet.
