Never heard of it done in PHP. Check out Flash/Flex.

PHP is server-side, so to fetch a feed from a web cam, it would either have to be connected to the actual server computer, or set up as a network/internet server on whichever computer it is connected to.

I'm sure you would be better of using Flash or Silverlight, or something like that.
They are client-side things that can actually get access to the client's camera. (Or so I am told.)

Hi, We have developped an client application in C#. Among other things, this application should display in 4 different windows (or 4 different panels in the same window), 4 webcam streams (web streaming) from different webcams. We would like to set up a Webcam server on which we would connect several webcams (at least 12) and stream the output of each webcam on the web. That way, our client application could choose which webcam streams...

I just bought a new Dell, so I'm sorry if this is a stupid question. There is a built-in webcam. Im using the disc provided by Dell (Dell Webcam Software), however during the installation, a pop-up window says to make sure the webcam USB cable is connected to the computer. What does this mean? The webcam is already build-in to the computer? This is preventing the installation of the software. Thank you for you help

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
