    this is how we detect if a camera is attached or not as Camera.getCamera() returns null if no camera is attached

    camera0=Camera.getCamera();

    if (camera0 == null){

    trace("camera0 is not attached");

    }

    Hi,

    At the initial stage ,

    camera0=Camera.getCamera();

    if (camera0 == null){

    trace("camera0 is not attached");

    }

    will work.If user plugged the camera in runtime it won't detect

    well you could call a timer to continously check and then stop the timer once the if statement returns true. Just try some actionscript/logiic jeesh.
