For example, photobooth, ichat and Iimovie. Those are all free.
Due to the video conference purpose, photobooth and ichat will auto mirror this video from webcam.
I want to find out the AP software that is original video. I do not need auto mirror.
Finally, I find the MAC quicktime player can display video without any mirror.
I will test my " Driver free UVC A/V CVBS usb card" on the quicktime player.

(sorry I directly translate the Chinese word to english)
↓ we can see the webcam video on the macbook.

Due to the battery on this mackook is empty. So I change to another macbook.

4.Result
During this experiment, MAC always think my grabber is as "webcam"
If we use this grabber card on the photobooth and ichat, mac will auto mirror the video. Because MAC think this device is as video conference.
I also test the Imovie. But this software CAN NOT open the external webcam.
I think this garbber card can use on some multimedia application.
For example, music software "Arkaos".
Arkaos need not only the internal webcam video source bust also extra live video source.
You can use these grabber card to do something.
For software engineer designer, they can easily design the video application software.
They do not to think how to "Vitural webcam"
This "NO driver install UVC A/V CVBS USB grabber card" will M.P on the 2011/08.
