Video capture device

[Jorge Cabrera <jorge.cabrera@andago.com>]

Hello,

I wanted to set up a videoconference service at my company using a sony 
video camera with a usb video capture device and linux (Ubuntu to be 
specific). The videoconference system we're using is through webex and 
megameeting. I am currently using an Avermedia video capture device but 
the problem I had was that for this device the default input was "Tuner" 
and even dough I could set the default input to S-Video with v4l 
utilities this would only work with mplayer, vlc... but it wouldn't work 
with flash or java in a browser which are the technology behind most of 
online videoconference services. So after a month of banging my head 
against the wall I gave up and installed another operating system. 
Windows. Yes, I know.

But now I want to give it another try so this time I was thinking of 
trying with another video capture usb device so I wanted to ask the 
members of this list if you ever made one of this devices work perfectly 
under linux, specially with flash or java technologies. I think I would 
have the same problems with any Avermedia device so maybe there's 
something out there that works.

Thanks for your help,

Have a nice day
