Last week we announced a new feature for DeafDC.com — video comments. However, we were bummed to learn that Mac users had trouble posting their comments. Well…good news! We now have instructions to make Mac video comments possible for people who have iSight. And it worked with several of our Mac buddies. Yay!

Mac users, here you go:

Why doesn’t the Flash recorder work with my Mac’s iSight webcam?

This is a problem with iSight/Flash and is not specific to Riffly’s recorder. Click the “Add Webcam Comment” link to bring up the Riffly recorder and then click “Allow”. Hold down the Control key and click with the mouse in the Flash recorder window. This will bring up the Flash menu, select “Settings…”. Then click on the camera tab at the bottom of that settings window. Select “USB Video Class Video” from the drop down list and it should begin to work. Press “record” to begin recording your video comment and then press “Stop” when you are done. The application will automatically add the URL for your video to the comment window.

Obviously we can’t post screenshots because we don’t have a Mac (we know, we know, they’re real cool!). Please give it a whirl and let us know if it works with your Mac/iSight, post your video comment below!
