Converting Your ToUcam Pro II Into
A ToUcam III V1.1

Even though this worked for me, you never know when something might go wrong.
You are doing this at your own risk!
I take NO responsibility for your damaged webcam!
So why upgrade? Well the biggest reason is the new YUY2 codec.
Compared to the I420 and IYUV, the YUY2 will allow you to capture higher quality
images. You also get complete control over the contrast slider.
Now before we start we need to gather a couple of things:
A neat program called WcRmac
The new SPC900NC binary file
And of course the SPC900NC driver (Note! This is the English
driver)
1) Install WcRmac and copy the SPC900NC binary file to this directory:
"X:\Program Files\TWIRG\WcRmac\binary\8116"
2) Now launch your favorite capture program like VRecord, K3CCDTools, QCFocus and make sure it is running.
3) Start WcRmac and connect to your webcam (WebCam/DS
Interface). Check the "ok - I take full responsibility using this program"
box and then enter the Binaries screen.
