I've been searching for while now and I can't find a simple example of how to capture a webcam stream with FMJ. Are there any tutorials or examples available which could help me?
I have been working with FMJ for a while and I haven't found many examples to start with either. What I would do is to explore the FmjStudio class that has the webcam functionality integrated and its pretty straight forward.
For bob:
What you want is FMJ. FMJ uses an DataSource implementation for civil to use it with JMF. I would recommend you to go to http://fmj-sf.net/ download the latest source and explore FmjStudio aswell since it uses civil to capture.
For theDude:
You are right, you can use JMF aswell but the same code you use for JMF will most likely work with FMJ (maybe with a coupla changes) and the performance will be much better, specially if you want a wide range of different webcams to work with your software.
