How do I setup my website to show live video from my webcam?

I have a site up already but have no idea how to get live video on there (or if I can even do this at all)

Any help appreciated
 
You can stream it or what a lot of folks do is to upload via FTP pics every 60 seconds or so. Then it's just a static image to deal with.

CoffeeCup software has a nice semi-live webcam utility that works this way.

VisionGS PE will allow streaming via webpages. I did some testing using this. It has a *personal* webserver that actually does the streaming and you could run it in tandam with the primary site assuming you have a high speed link and static IP (or Dynamic DNS)

These are just some off the wall thoughts.. others may have more detailed info.
