True, I just re-read Jinjenator's idea and initially I thought he just wanted to capture images, not stream them. RevVideoGrabber isn't built for streaming images from your webcam. If you're just looking for recording video clips, it's perfect. Streaming will require either your own external or if you aren't needing a good framerate, you could setup your stack to screenshot the camera view and stream those images. I'm not familiar enough with Quartz, but you *might* be able to create something that can accomplish this task from there. Your milage may vary with Quartz on Windows deployments.

Hello.

Look in your Revolution Installation Folder (2.7.4-gm-1) and in the Resources/Sample Projects folder you'll find the "Video Capture" stack that leverages the VideoGrabber external. That should get you started. If you're on a mac, you can also use Quartz Composer to directly access the camera from a Quicktime Player.

Thanks,

Hi all

Is it possible to control a webcam from revolution - with a view to
streaming the captured images?

Not sure where to start with this one :/
