However, OctroVideo does allow streaming to a website which is exactly what you guys are looking for. I have only used it for a few min, but it seemed to work very, very well.

I have used Octro for months and it works great!!!

With the regular Camera setting, it connects no problem through ActiveSync and using the Wireless Lan feature to connect through my router to my computer and the program.

However the bacic "Camera" setting only broadcasts at 320x240 and I know our phones are capable of a much better picture and FPS than we get with WebCamera Plus. It just seems the program needs "tweaked" to run with our phones.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Can anyone mod the program to work with our phones? Are there any new alternatives out there (I haven't found any but I thought I would ask).

So none of the software guys on this site can't tweak this program to run better on our phones? Maybe get the Camera+ setting to work? Anyone?

I tried Webcamera Plus too but I finally ended up using mobiola web camera for Windows Moble.
The biggest problem with Webcamera Plus is that it stopped my normal camera from working...a pretty interesting thing so you can imagine that I removed it right away...

Mobiola works perfectly, it's relatively fast and has some basic functions.

I tried Qik too which is interesting but I don't want those features from my phone, I mean who is interested what I am doing.

I wanted to use the webcamera with yahoo messenger and skype it works with mobiola.
