Webcam streaming with VLC

[Cazz]

What I understand it is very easy to stream webcam from linux with VLC

for some years ago I did try streaming with movie to another VLC and it works but now I like to stream to a page
The problem is that most of the guide I have found use a old VLC and the new one is a little diffrent so I have never
get it to work.
I can play local the webcam but that all.

Stream to a page?

Are you behind a router? Then you need to configure it to forward the data. http://portforward.com/

yes to a embed mediaplayer or flash.
I have not even get it to work on my Local LAN so I don't think it is the router problem yet.

the Linux har a webcam
it also have a apache server install and on that webserver I like to have page that people can see the webcam

You need a flash server application also. I don't know anything for linux. I have just used wowza in windows with vlc and it works fine, see http://www.wowzamedia.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1350 .

nice but I can even use a embed mediaplayer like Microsoft Media Player
I just like to show something in realtime on a page.

Are you following the VLC wizard and outputting asf with wmv(see http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=66473&p=221466#p221466 ) ? Then embed http://wiki.videolan.org/Simple_Stream_VLC_to_Website
