The VideoLAN Forums

Can we use web cam and micro phone in videoLAN so that i can telecast a live video from one room to another. if possible, would you tell me how it can be possible?

I'd rather advise using a video-conferencing software like gnomemeeting or netmeeting, etc...

dear sir,

First of all, thank you for your suggestion.

now we are going through a project. the topic is a "virtual classroom" ,in which the "teacher's" image (captured through webcam ) is sent to other machines.

when i heard about video lan , we were seeking whether we can implement the same idea in our project. that is why we posted such a question.

We are doing project in linux and use C language. now we need to know how can we capture image using webcam.

If you have any valuable suggection, please do come to help us.

hi friend,
Glad to meet you. I am a student too, and now doing a "vitual classroom" project.
