Hi there,
today, my trusty webcam died after 6 Years use. Checking the prices for a good replacement, I came up with the idea "hey, why not simply use an Actioncam" (main-use as webcam and also for bike-tours etc)...
For that, I already found out I'd need an HDMI-to-USB-Grabber (for most AC's with HDMI-out) - or a PCIe-Extension-Board...
I did find some products, but they are all very expensive...
As I don't have an AC yet - does anybody know a good Grabber or an Action-Cam already "webcam-enabled"?
Or is my idea doomed to fail anyway?
Thanks for any help & hint!
