Hi all,
Ok, here is what I want to do. I want to capture video from a capture card and stream it over the net. However I want the client on the other end to be able to see whatever video is being captured by the server and be able to select which device it wants to capture from. I also want the client to be able to save snapshots and full streams if they so desire. Kind of like watching the office while your at home without the VCR.

If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be a great help.

btw, I've installed the DSPack components but I don't see how I'm going to stream the video from it. Unless the output can be buffered and then send over a dedicated streaming connection. Like the server accepting one connection from a client but when live video is required then a second connection is started and is dedicated to just WriteStream(@videostream, sizeof(videostream)). I'm lost but I'm getting the gist of it, I think.

Anyway, some insight would be greatly appreciated.
I'll be online until 7 AM.

Thanks,

my example project doing exactly that Smile
except client commands .. you can add those simply as there are simple
commands for getting the stream format and getting the stream

http://leenover.homeip.net/isapi/pas2html.dll/pas2html?File=/delphi/VideoCoDecDemo/

the filenames should be selfexplaining Smile
VideoCoDecDemoBin.zip
VideoCoDecDemoSrc.zip

in case of a b&w picture set the clients receiving bitmaps pixelformat to
pf24bit
