Any advice for getting video input from a camera source other than an
available built-in iSight?

I've got an external iSight, of the old-school Firewire variety, and a
project which relies on the camera facing away from the screen. It works
fine in testing on a Mac Pro with no other camera source, but it'll be
deployed on a laptop, and on the laptop, the Video Input patch is apparently
too in love with the built-in iSight to admit the existence of any other
camera. Our only known alternative is to drop Quartz Composer in favor of a
lot of truly gross GUI Scripting, so I thought I'd ask.

A C-based solution would be dandy. I'm inexpert with the Quicktime APIs, but
this composition is already being incorporated in an app.

Thanks,
