This is from WMM2.6 help...
Q. Why am I unable to import video from my Web camera or analog video
source?
Import Video does not support importing video from a Web camera or analog
video source such as a VCR. To use video from your Web camera, you can use
the software that comes with the camera to record the video to your
computer.
