Allowing recording of video from webcam?

DezUk · 28 Jun 2012 at 13:38

Hi Folks,

I am looking for a way to allow users to record a short video clip using their webcam, for example 5 mins. I am thinking there must be a way to allow the user to record the video on their client machine and then its uploaded to the server?

I did find this but it seems to only take stills, can anyone help have something exactly like in the link but for recording video?

Thanks

Sorry for dragging up an old thread but in relation to my above question, I found this:

Can anyone tell me how this is achieved as this is exactly what I am looking for though I would want to record for 5mins approx.

Looking at the code I see a lot of JS but is ther anyway I can grab the required code?

And how does it record, does it record to the server oir client PC , then upload?

Would love to get a hold of the code and play with it.

Well 2 minutes or maybe even 1 minute would be enough, the idea is to make the user sell themseves to the camera. So the shorter the better as it would foprce them not to ramble.
