Using Linux for the server.
VLC grabs from the webcam, transcodes to mp4 format, packetizes it, and sends it off to a Darwin Streaming Server as a stream of packets. A SDP file is requested, and (old school) Quicktime or VLC kicks in and plays it. About a 13 second delay. Works great.
But i-things don't do RTSP. Or Flash video. I can re-grab the stream with VLC again on the DSS box and re-output it as a HTTP stream with a few different muxers, and I can use various codecs, I've tried all sorts of combinations.
I guess I'm gonna have to break down and ask the guys that wear ties for some $$ to spend on this for a change....
