With reference to the documentation of compatible USB webcam : http://elinux.org/RPi_VerifiedPeripherals
I chose to use the webcam LifeCam HD-6000 Microsoft (and yes ... it works on Linux ^^)
Implementation of streaming
To achieve the streaming part, I chose to use the MJPG Streamer software : http://sourceforge.net/projects/mjpg-streamer
At first download the source and compile the program.
make clean all |
Note that it is possible that it is necessary to modify the header files (*. H)
to change videodev.h in videodev2.h (or then create a symbolic link).
Then run MJPG Streamer :
sudo sh start.sh |
You can also edit the start.sh script to set the port used for example:
./mjpg_streamer -o "output_http.so -p 8585 -w ./www"
