This happens because Yahoo Messenger will pick up the first webcam that it finds. Yahoo Messenger does not list all available cameras. Workaround: Assuming WebCamDV is already installed, turn off your DV Camcorder. Open Yahoo Messenger. Go to Tools menu and select “Start My Webcam”. At this point, you should see the WebCamDV logo. Turn on DV camcorder and you should now see your video stream.
