HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Re: Webcam on HFS

« on: January 01, 2009, 01:49:58 PM »

Thanks That_Stevens_Guy. I appreciate your point but this is not that great an issue for me because I can always use Skype or some other webcam messaging system (get my people to install similar software) to accomplish a 2 way communications stream. Just thought there might be an easy solution with HFS. I am using Win98SE very successfully, am very comfortable with it, have no intentions of going to XP (certainly not Vista). If a change ever became necessary, I am looking at Mac or Linux, which I am currently experimenting with. As far as support for 98SE, there is a programmer in Australia who continues to update, hotfix, patch 98SE with a program, AutoPatcher for Win98SE, a 280 mb file, which updates all aspects of 98SE until Dec/08. Another program Revolutions Pack 7.11 changes the 98SE gui to either XP or Vista. While I have great success with both of these programs, USE THEM WITH GREAT CARE!! because they can crash your system. So my 98SE looks like Vista with the reliability of 98SE. As far as available software for 98SE, I am using Oxygen Office Professional (the larger version of Open Office), the Gimp (the Photoshop replacement) for image manipulation, both free programs, plus all free security software (Avast, Super AntiSpyware Free, Spyware Blaster, Sygate Personal Firewall, HiJack This, CCleaner) to very securely protect my computer. Just my personal experience. Thanks again.

Please forgive me Warp, but your reply is way too technical for me to follow. I am just looking for some simple webcam software which shows live motion of me from my webcam that I can place in the HFS Virtual Window so someone can see me while we are chatting on the telephone. Thanks.

I am running Win98SE on a P3 600, 256megs, cable internet. Can I use the video from a webcam on HFS so when people go  to my HFS, they can see me while I am talking to them on the telephone, these people are not using VOIP, so I just want them to see me. I am not much of a techie, so please make your reply easy to follow. Thanks

I am a non-techie so please make your reply easy to follow. I would like to put my webcam with motion video on HFS so others without webcams can see me while we are having a telephone conversation, Can I accomplish this on HFS, if so, how? I have an Intel Pro PC webcam, am using ultra lite cable internet. I have Microsoft NetMeeting on my computer. Thanks again.
