Vixia HFg40 for live stream (webcam)

[NodakJack]

HI all,

I purchased a Vixi HF G40 and was told I could use it to livestream through my computer. I can't figure out how to do it. I feel as if thegre is a menu setting that I am missing.

It doesn't work via HDMI at all (the internet says HDMI on a computer is out only, so that makes sense. 

I connect via USB and have it the on/off swicth set to "camera," and windows doesn't recognize it at all.

I connect and turn it to "media"  and the windows thinks its a disk drive. 

Any advice would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Jack

As I recall I didn't have to make any camera adjustments to get the Magewell to work.
