Hi What I'm trying to do is to stream pictures from a webcam -or movies- to a webpage on another server. I use kernel 2.4.20 the camera is a USB Philips Toucam XS 720k/20 with the *right* ov511 & ov518_decomp modules I have tried camserv and xawtv and both work on the localhost http://localhost:9192 (which is 192.168.110.20) but when I want to access to the page where the picture should be from another machine (192.168.110.7) all it says is "loading ... " but speed quickly drops to 13b/sec and its a 100 Mb link Camserv says "Accepted new socket 192.168.110.7" I really can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, so any help would be greatly appreciated thanks <--------------- camserv.cfg ---------------> # video_basic: The 'basic' color-changing video module.
