Another PHD question?

[tich]

I've recently downloaded PHD & I'm having to use my Philips SPC 880 as a guide camera as I can't afford a proper guide camera. I've plugged the camera into the laptop & started up PHD, after a couple of attempts I managed to get the camera recognised by PHD although I'm not getting any image coming through. I've even shone a light straight at the camera but the screen was still blank. Is there some settings I've missed? The camera works fine in sharpcap so I know it's not the camera at fault.

Did you click on 'loop'?

Thanks Rik although I've just tried it again & for some reason it's working I wasn't getting anything last night & I did press the loop function. But now the camera seems to be getting quite warm is this normal? I only ask as I don't want it to burn itself out or anything.
