FFMPEG LIve video Encoding in Windows

Hai,

i am new to FFMPEG . I compiled and Installed FFMPEG in windows XP using CYGWIN. Its working well with encoding of various media files. But my problem is with live video. I am not able to give live video feed from camera/ video card to FFMPEG for encoding. In Linux i know it works. But i dont know how it can be possible in windows. can anybody help me in solving this please ??

Thanks,
Vivek.

How to grab Live videos using video card to FFMPEG

Hi,

I do not know how to grab a Live video that can be captured through the video card. I am using the Osprey 500 video card that can capture the videos but i do not know how to provide the produced video as input to the FFMPEG as I want to get flash files as output. FFMPEG can easily convert any media file to any desired format.

Thanks,
Vikas
