HI

I have a server / client chat application that works perfectly - for me anyway! within this application i have a picture box that uses the vfw api to display webcam images.

Now, how do I broadcast these image to the server and allow other clients to view the stream?

I seem to have it worked out in my head:

1) client starts webcam and images are displayed
2) a port on the clients pc broadcasts these images (how do i do this?)
3) other clients connect to this stream and download the streaming images which are then displayed in the picture box on their pc (how to do this?)

Basically its a client server webcam streaming system i am looking to do but have searched quite hard and dont seem to find anything other than how to display my webcam on my own pc and how to capture the images into a file!

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Stuart
