Default Streaming Cam Soft/hardware sort of explained

For those that asked - running a streaming cam is way different to uploading
static jpg images via FTP to a website.

I have a home network of 4 machines plus a laptop - going ADSL via Plusnet
utilising a Buffalo Wireless Router and X Modem - one machine is then used
as a webserver - using cam image webserver software see
http://www.icode.co.uk/ for much more detail on their products - the camera
is a Panasonic Digital VideoCam - I use a Icatcher video capture card that
comes with the webserver software - the PC is very much stand alone on the
Network for security reasons - that's all the easy bit - the hard bit was
the configuartion of the NAT forwarding on the Ip address so you can see it
across the network again more info can be found on the site above. Hope that
acts as a starter - it is quite technical, but the end result is well worth
the effort!!!

the refresh rate is so much better
