Got a logitech webcam c300, it uses the “uvcvideo” kernel module.
\nTypically you would grab video using “motion” and stream it on mpeg, well that’s rubbish if you want better
\ncompression, so let’s do it using the best of the best: h264.
\n#!\/bin\/ksh
\nDEV=\/dev\/logitechcam
\nps -ef | grep -i vlc | grep -v grep |grep -i logitechcam | awk ‘{ print $2 }’| while read P;do
\nkill -9 $P
\ndone
\nVLC=”\/usr\/local\/bin\/cvlc v4l2:\/\/$DEV :input=2 :input-slave=alsa:\/\/hw:2,0 –alsa-samplerate=32000
\n–v4l2-controls-reset –v4l2-auto-white-balance=1 –v4l2-do-white-balance=1 –v4l2-autogain=1 –sout ”
\n21\/433
\nCAM=”transcode{vcodec=h264,acodec=mp4a,width=320,height=240,vb=64,ab=24,channels=1,venc=x264}:standard{access=http,dst=0.0.0.0:8090\/stream.flv}”
\n22\/433
\n23\/433
\n#CAM=”transcode{vcodec=mjpg,width=320,height=240}:duplicate{dst=std{access=http{mime=multipart\/x-mixed-replace;boundary=–7b3cc56e5f51db803f790dad720ed50a}.mux=mpjpeg,dst=0.0.0.0:8090\/m.mjpg}}”
\n${VLC} “#$CAM”
\nthis produces a very decent quality stream at around 100kbps, audio also included!
\nEnjoy!
