Hello,

i would link to use VNC for my webcam. there must me an JPG-Image und a stream from the camera. the jpg is needed for a html-page. when i use the image output modul from vnc, it is possible to save an image every xx frames. unfortunately the saved images have increment numbers, so i can't use them with my html page. also the format of the images ist png. jpg-images would be better. is there any posibility that the filename of the image is always the same?

temporarly i am using 2 capture cards. with one i'm streaming with VLC and with the second i'm saving the image for the html-page. it would be geat if i could to that job, using only one capute card.

regards

automatic snapshot every minute or so...

if you are comfortable with PHP for instance,
you could write a dynamic page instead of a static HTML page.

If you are running on linux, you could a batch cron script,
renaming the last generated file in toto.png and in your
HTML file just reference this toto.png file
