SCEI provides a Linux Kit for PlayStation2. We succeeded to port EffecTV to it.
PS2 has no video capturing device but has USB ports, and some USB camera
devices are supported by Linux. The system seen in this picture used CREATIVE's
WebCamPlus.
Video conferencing with EffecTV
![[Load the picture]](gallery/vic.jpg "Vic with EffecTV")
Vic is a free video conferencing
tools. It read images from video4linux driver, so you can get images from
EffecTV by vloopback. See the shot, the conference can easily flame up!!
Because vic requires 352x288 image, you have to set it by "-geometry 352x288."
Some video devices do not support such size, so auto stretching feature of
EffecTV is very useful.
