Control Webcam from rev

[Brent Anderson]

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.

Thanks,
Brent Anderson
