After you have installed your Yahoo Messenger with Voice, let's go preview your camera with it.

*To preview your camera, you will need to go to "Messenger" and then "My Webcam". You should then see your webcam displayed
 
−
within the Yahoo window. Whether you see an image or not in the Yahoo window, please go to the next step below.

*You should now see a preview of the camera in one window, as well the camera image displayed within the
 
−
Yahoo "My Webcam" window.

−
Yahoo window will not.
 
−
 
−
*Click "OK" in the "Yahoo Messenger with Voice Preferences" window and you are ready to go. Please note that there is
 
−
a "Broadcast" and a "Pause" button in the Yahoo "My Webcam" window - to display Live Video in a Video Call, you will need to
 
−
ensure that you are in Broadcast Mode by clicking the "Broadcast" button. If you want to pause video, simply click on "Pause"
