Title: Streaming Webcams
Post by: naum on August 29, 2007, 02:27:25 PM
Looking to setup a 24x7 streaming webcam.

Any advice or reviews on webcams.

And how to serve it up (using "displaced" pipe like ustream, stickam) to many more than a lone T1 can service?

Goal is to have web browser access to building construction in process.

Shit, I didn't see this thread when I made mine...

Logitech do nice webcams.

If you want real time you could use something like Userplane (http://www.userplane.com/webchat/). They have free and pay options. You already mentioned Stickam. There is also a whitelabel one called UStream (http://www.ustream.tv/). There are tens of others that I can't find right now.

The old cheating way is to just upload one image every 30 seconds or whatever.
