w3cam, Version 0.7.2
[1]Rasca, Berlin 1998-2001, published under the [2]GNU GPL
Note: This [3]CGI is for [4]Linux running a kernel of the [5]2.2.X
series or newer!
w3cam is a simple CGI to retrieve images from a so called video4linux
device. In other words this program will only run on Linux machines
which support a video4linux-device.
w3cam supports a plain mode and a gui mode. In the gui mode a html
with a form is supplied to change some parameters with the mouse ..
* Supported output formats: [6]PNG, [7]JPEG and PPM
* Screen dumps in GUI mode [8]double.jpg
* Installation: run 'configure & make install' and edit the
installed w3cam.cgi.scf file for the runtime configuration.
* Usage: Install the CGI and then call {url}/w3cam.cgi?help
* Download source code: [9]w3cam-0.7.2.tar.gz
* Needed Libraries: [10]libz, libpng, libjpeg
* Checkout [11]ChangeLog for changes since the last release.
* Tips:
+ Don't use refresh=0 if you are not the only one, who want to
access the video, cause this will lock the v4l device.
+ Set refresh=-1 if the image is NOT embedded in a
[12]HTML-page (or set it at compile time as the default or at
runtime in the configuration file).
+ Use w3cam.css to change the layout (don't forget to install
and define the URL in the config file..)
* Problems?: [13]Mini FAQ, and also consult the included
documentation and HTML samples.
* Links:
+ [14]Video4Linux
+ [15]Video 4 Linux Resources
+ [16]bttv Driver
+ [17]FreeType Library
+ [18]Motion
