wmwebcam 0.3.5 - written by Antti Takala -------------- better documentation coming later, don't panic. this is for watching your webcam which has a video4linux driver in your windowmakers dock.. this is actually just a edited version of vidcat (from w3cam's package) I combined it with minirgb to open a dockapp window where to draw the image from the webcam. some code is also taken from timecops wmtime-minirgb demo (windowopening etcetc). default jpeg output file is /tmp/wmwebcam.jpg and default quality is 100%, change the default values if necessary from the source code. also remember to check the wmwebcam.pl and edit it problems running this app? first I was going to make this only for myself but decided to release it anyway. don't ask help if this doesn't work on your system, sorry =) w3cam/vidcat are written by Rasca (thron@gmx.de) minirgb is written by timecop@japan.co.jp requirements: ------------- - a v4l webcam (default /dev/video) supporting 352x288 - libjpeg - made for windowmaker but should work on other windowmanagers too installing: ----------- - adjust default values from wmwebcam.c - "make" - modify wmwebcam.pl - "make install" or copy files manually (wmwebcam, wmwebcam.pl) features: --------- - grabs image from v4l device once a second (to prevent unnecessary cpu load) - shows webcam image in dock resized to 6x smaller image than original - saves jpeg image to a file and runs a custom script every X seconds (def 60) bugs: ----- - not very userfriendly yet =) - propably many todo: ----- - some buttons to control the dockapp (disable scriptrunnig etc) - optimizing - configuration (command line options and/or .wmwebcamrc file etc..) - better documentation,.. - much much more (please send ideas etc)
