USB camera with green screen?

Hello,

I bought a USB webcam Logitech C170.

I am trying to do some webcam, so I open QuickTime and make a new movie which shows me on the webcam.


I want to try the USB webcam with my green screen, so I download Chroma Key Live, which finds Device C170 and shows a background image.

I can't see any foreground image which should be me on the webcam?


How can I make the USB camera show on the Mac please?

Mac mini, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

Hello, yes, the USB Webcam Logitech C170 worked with my Mac Mini, using QuickTime Player.

When I say worked, I mean I could see myself on the computer screen in QuickTime Player.


I can make a short video clip with the green screen, but I was hoping to try using the Webcam to chat with someone.


I really should avoid Windows products, they're so frustrating how they lock things in.

It's all what the shops sell though. I might have to do more Internet and eBay purchases to look for Mac and Linux compatible products.


Anyways, and further tips on using a Webcam with green screen would be appreciated.
