I'm using Unity3D c# and want to read a video feed to display on a texture.

The issue here is that I would like to get the video from a live feed e.g. IP Camera. Guessing similar sites like this or this uses similar techniques live. Also testing against apps like this

Don't really know where to start, trying out TCPListener and Socket but can't really use a url, just ip and port.
