Hi there.

Just an idea pops into my mind, or more than a question actually:

Can a IP WebCam be used with MediaBrowser3 Server as a LiveTV source?

IP WebCamera in this case could be MJPEG/Some video with audio.. No controll, just the video &/ audio.

If you use DVBLink to feed WMC and then ServerWMC to MB3 then you can do this now :)

Ok, so there is a workaround for this! Thanx!

But, seriously, A Addon for this could be sweet. I can not be so compelx.. Just passing url to ffmpeg to transcode and some small ui view with settings.. :)

WAF goes way up if this is available as a "watch the kids on our babycam" channel.

Well, that's one way to view this. WebCams (mjpeg) are very common in security perspective and In my mind, should be considered as a "live TV plugin" that they also are with MediaServer. I would have several channels to view from work with my phone, like my garage doors and yard cams.. ;)
