Webcam Streaming - Single Feed to multiple viewers

Asked by Pete2003 in Miscellaneous Networking, Computer Web Cameras, Streaming Media Players

Hi Guys,

I'd like to have multiple people view my webcam. I however have slow internet line so I can pretty much only have one connection going. I would like to acomplish the following.

I would like to stream my camera to am ISP/streaming service who will take my stream and 'multiply'??? it as many times as I have viewers.

The service I use must not constantly pull data from my webcam as that will make me run out of bandwidth very quickly but it must only read data from me when someone wants to view it.

to recap:

-- 0 viewers:
no data pulled from my camera
-- 1 viewer:
single stream of data pulled from my camera
-- many viewers:
single stream of data pulled from my camera and then diustributed by the service as many times as needed.

Please recocomend solutions as well as any services/companies I shoudl look at.

This is for a family baby cam, for the grandparents, aunts and uncles to see, so obviously LOW cost or free.

Thanks
