I wrote something along the same lines about a year ago. I didn't interface v4l directly, but instead hacked up streamer (from xawtv) to export its capture buffer as a shm region, and send out messages to other programs interested in the data (including motion detection software written in C, and some Java software which controlled the two, saving images to disk and serving the data through http) Unfortunately this was written at a previous job, and I don't have access to the code anymore :( JMF might be worth investigating too, but the Linux implementation still isn't out (and at least 2.0 had plenty of limitations which made it very hard to use in anything interesting) -- Pekka Pietikainen
