Hey everyone! Test this out for us.... we are testing webcams for the wedding! This is a test of the webcam ~software~ moreso than the camera, this is not the camera we would use for the weddingmoot simulcast necessarily, it is a freebie camera ecurbh had.

Paddock Cam

If all of you would click on it and moniter it for awhile (leave it on!), we want to see if a lot of users will crash it. It is set now at a pretty high refresh rate, very nearly streaming. It is also a test to see if it works to have it in a javascript format like this.

What you are looking at is the view out our window to the paddock and the pasture beyond... I know the pasture is over-exposed, nothing we can do about that unfortunately. You can see cars going by on the road beyond, but it can't focus on the horses unless they are in the paddock. I'm going to go toss some hay out there in a minute to encourage them to stay in view if I can. The camera just doesn't have many tools, and that is one thing we'll be looking at when we look at cameras.

I'm getting it here at work, but I have to hit "refresh" for each new frame.

How about a camera on a pan/scan/tilt platform?
