connectix quickcam difficulties
Hello everyone, I just got my connectix quickcam working with debian. It
takes really good pictures. I plan to use the quickcam as a web camera.
For an experiment I took a picture of my self and tried to put it on my
website. The quickcam man pages say that the format is a portable
pixilmap or .ppm extention to take a picture. the command is:
cqcam > filename.ppm If I do this it works fine, the file is viewable
from xv and xpaint. I also tried to take the picture using the file
formats of .jpg and .gif and the sam thing happens. From inside netscape I
can open the file and view it just fine. It doesn't work when I put it on my
web-page. The picture looks like a broken picture icon. (I know that this is
a bad way to discribe it - but it is the only way I know how. If anyone can
help me, or you need anymore information please email me.
Thanks
Paul
