Well, that's good ;~D
Least ~somethin~ works! - This software seems to be not getting fubared as often.... we'll have to load a machine there at the beach house with it.... and a new camera. Don't suppose you have any experience with good-and-not-too-expensive cameras? And would if have to be wireless in order to get close enough to show anything?
I think wireless would be a good way to go. I'll try to run to Fry's in the next couple of days and see what they got. I need a new vid card for the cromwell2 box anyway. Just what I need... an excuse to go to Fry's... :-)
I'm not an expert, but it sounds like you need one of those 2.3GHz wireless spycam jobs. Range is maybe 100 feet, but the camera could run for several hours on a 9v battery, and have sound, too. Run the video from the receiver to a video capture device, then on to the web.
