hello all
just imported multiple .swf webcam flash object into the M8 2.5 mediabank.
the fun thing is that one can multiply the feeds, it's just a question of configuring the flashobject right for the input ( no reason it should remain a webcam....) and setting the flash authorisations to on.
you can then combine different flash run video in feeds with m8's capture. Now the key issue is wether or not it is possible to create flash objects handling different live feeds, from different sources, simultaneously.
here is a screen shot of different flash objects running the same isight ( didn't have more cameras with me- so this is a simulation, but one could potentially, if flash allows it, hook up a DV, a webcam, a security cam and have multiple live video feeds, unless there is a flash limitation which is unavoidable.
Even though they're the same device, the isight webcam, these live feeds are actually different media ( check the media bank) feeding frol the same source, yet not duplicates of the same.
and they are combined with m8 video capture, set on a different, infrared webcam ( the black and white image )
