How to share webcam images via Democaster

From DoWire Wiki

The use of images remain an experimental aspect of Democaster. In short your during a live webcast your computer takes a picture with a webcam every X seconds and FTPs (file transfers) the image to the Democaster server. Democaster presents and archives those images to the listener (viewer) if the Democast page for that event is open in their web browser.

The presentation and tools used for images are unique and not part of Winamp or Oddcast.

Install Fwink.

Check settings from Tech tab for an individual webcast.

Select xxx X xxx for image size.

The images quality setting should be set at 50 to keep webcasts accessible to dial-up users.

Add text to the images if you like. This is good for the "on-demand" slide show archive because it can include a time stamp.

FTP connections, used by Fwink and other webcam image programs, are not always reliable and image uploading can stop while the audiocast continues. Closing the restarting Fwink during the webcast can help.

Please note that you should stop image uploading and remove the XX.jpeg name from the file field before closing Fwink. By default Fwink opens using the previous settings and starts uploading images with the previous entered (left in) file name immediately upon restart from the task bar.
