spent the weekend trying to get a usb web cam to work with python
there are many false trails on the internet. ended up following

https://github.com/log0/video_streaming_with_flask_example
and
https://blog.miguelgrinberg.com/post/video-streaming-with-flask

installed pythons opencv

took some time to get things too work.
 time out error was solved by
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27769561/opencv-python-cv2-videocapture0-grab-and-cv2-videocapture0-read-hangs

using mjpeg compression relies on the BBB to decode (tobyte() command is 
really tostring() command. making live streaming very slow and laggy.

began to explore opencv with neon per

http://blog.lemoneerlabs.com/3rdParty/Darling_BBB_30fps_DRAFT.html
and
http://vuanhtung.blogspot.com/2014/04/and-updated-guide-to-get-hardware.html

after installing opencv per their instructions i kept getting a file too 
small error when importing cv2
decide try to reinstall debian image and start over.
