There is VideoFlow which is pretty cool (scroll down to the screenshots): http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2411 If it's just for playback, the only cross-plattform option right now is MPEG for which we have a general plugin. For Mac and Windows, the Sophie folks made nice players via FFI, based on QuickTime I think. On Linux there is a GStreamer plugin. For camera access, there is Scratch's x-platform CameraPlugin. Etoys on Linux uses a V4L plugin. For Windows there is a "DShowVideoDecoderPlugin".
I think most things that Bert mentions are open source, apart perhaps from the Scratch plugin. As it is cross-platform, the Scratch CameraPlugin sounds great for future versions of Squeak or Etoys, except that it may possibly be released under the Scratch or Scratch source licenses, which forbid commercial use. Anyone know if that is true? _______________________________________________ Beginners mailing list Beginners@lists.squeakfoundation.org http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/beginners
Both the "Scratch" plugin and the "Camera" plugin are open source and can be used in commercial app's AFAIK. You can get the source from:

Hold your breath and the Scratch Camera plugin may be hooked into Squeak and Etoys in the next day or so ;-)
