Video to Webcam ( brothersoft.com/video-to-webcam-243925.html) could make as a virtual webcam, but sadly, it's not free :( – mgpyone Mar 2 '10 at 12:37

I have never used it myself, but have seen others using it to display videos as a webcam. – Roald van Doorn Mar 3 '10 at 9:33
It works. Also see blog.manycam.com/?p=6 to remove the watermark. – Blorgbeard Mar 17 '10 at 9:34

As far as I know (and you may also have noticed) all virtual webcam programs for Windows cost money. Among many others, Magic Camera is shareware, though, so you can try it for free.

WebCam Studio is free but only for GNU/Linux.
