Linux command-line instructions to see your face on screen :) I'll have to digg more to get how you stream this info elsewhere.
See Syntek readme for the proper way to get an stk webcam to work
The Very Short Form:
<(^_^)> ~$: mplayer tv://
Detailed Form:
mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l:width=640:height=480
You _can_ make it smaller, not bigger on the CLI
mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:fps=30:device=/dev/video
?? Wonder if it makes a difference ??
mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:width=320:height=240:fps=25:outfmt=uyvy:device=/dev/video0
I'll tell you one thing: the Manual entry for Mplayer is... Long.
Now, try this one :)
mplayer tv:// -vo aa -monitorpixelaspect 0.5
It's always worth your time reading the manual...
