Run trough for video streaming.

[Prototype123]

Hi All.

I hope you guys can help.
I want to stream a video (webcam) from my home/office to a website. I don't know where to start or more to the point which method is best. (I have checked google, thats how I found you guys).

I'd like a step by step if you can give one.
I was thinking a good place to start would be a IP Wireless Network Webcam.


Thanks for your help.

May not be easy to stream live video unless you have your own website. Google 'how to stream to a website'. Bandwidth problems will be your biggest enemy. I would go with ustream.

Ustream is pretty good.

Another way is with a webcam app on your tablet or phone.

You set up a "DDNS". (Dynamic Domain Name Server) link to the camera via the router.

What would be the best type of camera for this? I was thinking of a IP wireless security camera, but if you guys have a better option?

Thanks for your replies.

None of them are any "good".

Soooooooooooo what should I use?

Look up "IP Cam" on Amazon. Around the $100 range.

This one has been popular for a while: http://www.amazon.com/Foscam-FI8910W-Network-Camera-Two-Way/dp/B006ZP8UOW/ref=sr_1_1?i...eywords=ip+cam

The only tricky part is port forwarding your router.
