Hello,
During the course of writing this piece of software, I
noticed a similar work done by Diego Gomez Deck and his
friends, but I just wrote another SqueakPlugin (in
the ".DLL" sense) for capturing the video stream input.
The features of this plugin, which I call
DShowVideoDecoderPlugin, are as follows:
* Supports wide variety of input devices ranging from USB
web cam to decent FireWire DV Cam.
* Can bypass the Squeak display mechanism, if you want.
(Bits can be sent to "stWindow" directly.)
* Can keep up to DV cam's 30 frames/sec on reasonably fast
computers, even if you copy the bits of every frame to
Squeak Form.
* Simple interface to start/stop the decoder.
The downside of this is:
* Only works on Windows and possibly only works on recent
versions of Windows.
* It doesn't do audio.
Anyway, if you are interested in it, please take a look at
my web page at:

Enjoy!
