This > is my current setup and I find it to be less than optimal. I wrote a program called "Danovitsch webcam". It captures images of a bktr-device, does JPEG-compression and has a build in HTTP-server to get these images out into the world. That's at least a bit more "optimal" than using bktr2jpeg to create your images. The webpage can be found here : http://www.danovitsch.dnsq.org/cgi-bin/gpl/ls.cgi?danovitschwebcam Or just download the latest version (V1.2) : http://www.danovitsch.dnsq.org/gpl/danovitschwebcam/1.2/danovitschwebcam-1.2.tar.gz grtz, Daan -- Control the lights in my room: http://www.Danovitsch.dnsq.org/webcam To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
