This is tangential to the last few questions I've asked.
I need to get video from an IP webcam (SNC-RZ25N) to Flash Media Server. I'd rather not have to use Windows, but if it makes things easier, I will. (Flash Media Live Encoder is a Windows only program.)
I've considered many different routes from point A to point B, but it seems like the easiest might be to just use Flash Media Live Encoder to publish to Flash Media Server. Then the only gap I have to bridge is getting a video source readable by Flash Media Live Encoder.
Of course, my source is on the network and FMLE looks for a "Microsoft DirectShow compatible video capture device". I have found a not-free SDK ( http://www.e2esoft.cn/vcam/vcamsdk.asp ) that should allow me to spoof such a device and hopefully send the camera stream to FMS.
Does anyone know of a different program or SDK I should be using? Am I making things more complicated than they need to be?
