Quickcam Pro 4000 Mac
QuickCam is a line of webcam video camera products by Logitech.
The original QuickCam was developed by Connectix in 1994 for nationwide commercial sale and was the first widely marketed webcam-like device, although its original advertising did not use the term 'webcam' or refer to the World Wide Web, then in its infancy. Video conferencing via computers already existed at the time, and client-server based video conferencing software such as CU-SeeMe was gaining popularity. Eventually, it evolved from an RS-422 connector to a parallel connector then eventually to a USB connection. It is now considered one of the top gadgets of all time.[1]
The initial model was available only for the Apple Macintosh, connecting to it via the serial port. It produced 16 shades of gray at a resolution of 320×240 pixels, and could record video at about 15 frames per second; it cost $100.

The software that originally shipped with the camera included QuickMovie for recording motion pictures and QuickPICT for capturing still images.
The QuickCam product line was acquired by Logitech in 1998. The company has gradually decreased support for the Macintosh platform, with only one current model officially supporting Mac or including Mac drivers.[2] This could largely be the result of Apple building webcams into their laptop and desktop computers, negating the need for external third party devices[dubious]. Many recent models implement the USB video device class standard and work under Mac OS without additional drivers.
Today, Logitech QuickCam is one of the world's most recognized webcam brands.
In October 2010, QuickCam was elected to Time Magazine's Top 100 Gadgets of all Time[1]

So currently, i'm trying to use my logictech quickcam pro 4000 (an old logitech webcam) with my mac to make stop motion movies. I have a white Macbook from 2008.
So when I try to capture video, none of the programs recognize the webcam, meaning there is no live feed from my webcam. The only capture devices the programs recognizes is the built in isite. I tried FrameTheif, iStopMotion, and BTV and when I go on iMovie it doesn't recognize my webcam at all. I installed the drivers for it to work with Mac OS X.
However, when I open 'logitech quick capture' software, i'm able to get a video feed from the webcam.
Is it something caused by the iSight camera built in?
White Macbook 2008, Mac OS X (10.5.7)
