Capture webcam then encode with h.264 standard to broadcast

Hi all,

I want build a application on window that can capture signal from webcam and microphone then encode ( ex: h.264 standard) to broadcast to internet via a streaming protocal (ex: rtmp or rtsp).

I know VLC or Flash Media Live Encoder can help me capture video and audio from divice to broadcast to internet… but require every clients install VLC or FMLE is unreasonable.

I know ffmpeg command line can help me capture and encode video from webcam (but not microphone) then write to a local file. I don’t find any sample allow capture webcam video and broadcast to internet (broacast from a local file is well)… Wowza give me a sample in [install-dir]/examples/videochat that using flash action scripts to capture and broadcast signal from webcam and microphone. But i know flash not support to encode video with h.264…

Can anyone give me a hint for my application?

Thanks a lot and sorry for my bad english :frowning:

Nonocosmos (http://www.nanocosmos.de) has browser based software for capturing H.264 and AAC from web camera and sending to the Wowza. It is not free.
