I'd like to set up a live webcam with a spare laptop I have, but the only way I know how to do it is with Windows Media Encoder. I'd like to embed the video into a webpage so people (mainly me) can click on the link and it takes me right to the live, real-time streaming video. Why is this so impossible? You'd think people would use webcams for more than MSN and YouTube, no?
I'd like to set it up a security system so I can check on the house when I'm at work, on vacation, etc etc. What software do I need? I tried Adobe Flash Media Encoder, but I have no idea how to set up a server or anything.
I have a broadband (super fast) connection, 3-4 webcams, but I really only need to use 1. My laptop is a dual-core @ 2Ghz, with 2GB RAM and 250GB HD. So powerful enough...easily.
Any web gurus out there willing to help. I'm at wits end. Seriously. LOL!
