Hi. Does anyone know if it is possible to use a webcam with Windows XP as a guest? I have a Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 and it seems to connect via the USB but no picture shows up on the screen. I wasn't sure if I had to have certain video settings to use it or if is even possible. Thanks!

Seems to be a problem with Cams in a guest. Not much luck and not much we can do about it until the Dev's make it happen.

Re: Using Webcam With Virtual Box And Windows XP Guest
yeah, I got the webcam (SAME one) video capture to work in Windows XP Pro SP3 guest (virtualbox 3.0.2) with Jaunty host...but it won't capture audio from the webcam's mic. so it's still pretty useless.
