Live video feed?

[sangel4you]

Hey everyone, I know people have done this (I think?!) and I was wondering if anyone knows how to set up a live video feed from a webcam onto the internet so I can try to watch my chickies hatch if I'm not home. (And of course I'd share the link with you all

) I have a webcam... I just don't know what to do now!

Setup a free channel on www.livestream.com then connect your webcam to the computer, and start streaming!

WebcamXP works an is free for private use. http://www.webcamxp.com/home.aspx

Ustream is used a lot for people without a static IP address. http://www.ustream.tv/

I use IP cameras like this. https://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.15974

However, it's http://www.livestream.com/michellesmoments for when you feel like checking in a day or two Also I was attempting to mute as it's in our bedroom/living room LOL. Let me know if it's not!

[sangel4you]

55, but that's with one vent plug in, and TONS of sponges, I'll do a view around he bator when I get home if I think of it...I am off to take DS to Dr

ha ha not working to view on the cell either- its too large. Someone shoot me an email if its dropping below 50 or my temp shoots up (if u can even see it!) LOL [email protected]

great, but i can't watch it since internet in my country is really slow and expensive.

but still it's great for those who live in other country.


but i think it will take 24 hours internet to get the video stream? i mean you'll have to attach it to a 24 hours running internet connection then, surely will costly except you've an unlimited one.

I'm on a shared broadband network so there's no time limit or anything. So far so good, my temps are maintained and my humidity is finally starting to rise. It's at 57%!
