The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

I have a question about writing a script so that I can "stream" video from a recording made by my Linksys WVC11B camera.

Asked by JOE-BULLITT in Miscellaneous Web Development

Tags: linksys, wvc11b

Hello.

I have a question about writing a script so that I can "stream" video from a recording made by my Linksys WVC11B camera.  

Alternatively, if anyone has a different idea as to how to stream the live feed from the
Linksys WVC11B camera (other than through the camera's built-in webserver webpage), I would certainly prefer to do that.  

A very similar question was asked last year (http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web/Q_20799705.html) and the answer provided was probably exactly what I need to do, but I do not know how to write the script to implement it.  I have included the highlights of the answer and I hope someone may be able to advise as how to code this script and incorporate it into a simple html web page.  

I am running 2000 Server with IIS5 and Windows Media server.

Thanks!
- Joe


Highlights of answer, provided by Insolence:
“Go download or install the LinkSys Viewer and Recorder Utility. Schedule a recording that is 5 minutes long, every 5 minutes (or something like this... maybe 1 min.?) and save it in a directory.

Write a few scripts using your favorite server-side web-based language (PHP, ASP, Java, etc) that automatically puts a link to the latest file saved to that directory.  In PHP you'd just use some file listing, find the latest date file, and put a link to that on your website.  That isn't LIVE streaming, but it's live enough...  If you need help writing these scripts for whatever language... ask  =)

You will still in this case have to write an "inbetween".  A script, PHP, CGI, Java, VB, something, that tells the streaming server to change what file it's streaming... or if you manage to find software to patch video together... then you need to write a small program to string them onto the end of the current file being streamed constantly.”
