Hi,
Finally, my webcam works again using the "uvcvideo" driver. I run a fedora core 6. I use a program "fswebcam" to capture an image every 60 seconds, and upload it, on a remote web server. Each image is named "web_image.jpg", and of course, on the remote server, there is only one image at a time. Each newly uploaded image, overwrites the old one.

I have two questions :
1) is there a program that could run with my webcam and my distro to display on my web site the continuous video stream captured by it.

Try motion. It monitors a webcam for motion events and captures only them. It has an option to turn the events into a movie.

2) If not, is there a way to add each newly captured image (one every 60 seconds) to an .avi or .mpeg file. That way I would be able to see each evening a sort of movie of what's happened in my home during the whole day.

Thank you. Francois
