Default A780 as Webcam..For newbie that wanna learn.

Files that you will need :
(1)A780asWebcam
After download the folder above, you will get 4 folders from the A780asWebcam folder. Namely usblanMOTO, USBLANpatch,fullscrvideo and MVDS.

(b)Install motovision.mpkg in your A780. Please make sure that your phone is able to install mpkg. Else youu might need to refer to other post in this forum regarding how to install mpkg file.
(c)Copy all the files inside USBLANpatch and paste it in the directory of btblan-demo-12b9-f001-07-05-2004.exe that you had just installed. (C:\Program Files\Belcarra\USBLAN). Press OK for the box regarding on "would you like to replace... "
(d)Now, u will need to check in Device Manager whether the USBLAN driver is installed properly.If properly u will see under Control Panel>System>Hardware>Device Manager under sub menu of sound, video, game controllers, there will be a " MotoVision for ..... virtual camera"appeared.

These means that you had successed for installing the driver needed.
(e)If you do have them (d) in your computer then u do not need to perform this step (e). So for those don't have, please go C:\Program Files\MotoVision, follow the sequence install 3 of the .BAT files. the sequence is :

Your computer will show " New hardware is detected...." just cancel the wizard and tap the motovision icon in your A780. Again your computer will show " New hardware is detected...." for the second times. This time you can select install from a list or specific location (Advanced).
