Is there some way to secure an ffserver webcam stream using Apache / HTTP Authentication? Some type of Apache proxy perhaps? Right now I have it so only machines on the LAN can view the http://webcam/stream.mjpg, but I want people from the outside to be able to access it if they provide a username / pw (HTTP Auth, which isn't built int...
Hi there, I'm having extreme issue with sizing an swf object in my browser. It appears if I scale my application up the webcam Allow/Deny functionality on the site disables itself in Firefox. It's definitely the strangest thing I've ever seen. Take a look: http://tinyurl.com/29ppl64 Click the "Skip" option, it will display the webcam o...
I'm having an issue with flash, which I am not really familiar with. I'm basing this code off of what came with the wowza media server in the video chat example, but unlike that example flash is not prompting me for whether or not to allow the video camera. Below is my actionscript: import flash.events.MouseEvent; import flash.events....
How do I connect two webcams to a PC? I need to grab the frames from the two webcam inputs simultaneously. What software should I use and is there any extra hardware that I will need? I prefer connecting the cameras using USB as most computers have several of these ports. Also please suggest solutions that will work in Linux. I'm using U...
I'm trying to embed some flash code, and I'm using swfobject. When I put it in the parent div, it asks the users for permission on the webcam/audio. However, when I put the flash code into a lower-level div, it doesn't prompt for permission to use the webcam, or anyting. How do I fix this? I.E. I can put the flash into contai...
I've got a WPF webcam component's source-code from Codeplex that I'm trying to port from .NET 3.5 to .NET 4.0. Compiles just fine under both targets, but in the .NET 4.0 version, it crashes when running the app with a System.Runtime.InteropServices.SEHException (0x80004005): External component has thrown an exception at the line moniker...
We're building a kiosk app that will have a fairly wide deployment. The app is in Flash running in a browser and requires the use of the webcam. As it stands, each kiosk will show the usual Flash "do you want to allow the use of your camera/microphone" dialog, which I suppose a local admin could click through, choose "remember," etc. Gi...
Hi, I am doing a project in C# called User Initiated Real Time Object Tracking. What I want is, take input from a webcamera to a picturebox(done using dshownet), then draw a rubber band rectangle on the video(say on a person's face/eye/nose/whole body - i think i am going to scope it down to face) using a mouse, then I want to track the ...
Everyone knows that recording a video with the user's webcam is possible with flash in the browser - but all the solutions I found until now involve a rmtp server that accepts a stream from the flash app. Is there a way to use webcam recording without such an extra media server? The usecase I want to implement is the following: Show ...
I'm having a problem where users with a slow connection aren't getting my image feed properly. i'm sending them new images every second to a picturebox inside an Ajax Update panel, using an Ajax Timer. so if their connection is really slow, one image doesnt load fully before the next one comes in, so they never get the whole picture......
Hi, I'm trying to control the exposure settings in a laptop integrated webcam. I can't control it programatically through DirectShow - IAMCameraControl interface returns E_PROP_ID_UNSUPPORTED when I call it with CameraControl_Exposure as the CameraControlProperty. I've successfully changed the exposure settings in different capture d...

On my PHP-based (Joomla!) site users should be able to provide a photo of themselfes and provide some comments to it (e.g. Name). This file along with the comment should then be stored on the server. The user should simply be able to do this either by uploading a file or by taking a picture with their webcam directly on my site. I like t...
I have installed opencv 2.1 on my mac mini using macports (automatic) 64 bit compile. the sample programs work EXCEPT for the camera based ones. i have a logitech c200 webcam. However, when i compile opencv with -arch i386 and -m32 everything works fine including connecting to the camera. i have read this is because quicktime is 32 bit...
I'm developing a program which should be capable to handle the re-attach of the USB camera. Sounds easy. At startup I iterate the filters looking for given VID and PID by parsing the display name. Then I create the graph and everything works fine. If the camera is being unplugged I catch the graph event, destroy the graph and even releas...
I've gotten OpenCV working with Python and I can even detect a face through my webcam. What I really want to do though, is see movement and find the point in the middle of the blob of movement. The camshift sample is close to what I want, but I don't want to have to select which portion of the video to track. Bonus points for being able ...
I'm writing a small audio recorder component in Silverlight 4. It works fine, but I've noticed that when I'm recording audio, the light on my webcam turns on indicating that the camera is active. While I know that I'm not doing anything insidious with the webcam, my users would have every right to be suspicious. Is it possible to tell ...
