using streaming video for a deskscape
Friday, June 22, 2007 by Ganey | Discussion: DeskScapes
I've been wondering if a .dream could be made to use a recording device as the wallpaper.
e.g. a webcam, video cameraor tv channel could be set as a background. im guessing its possible to use the input from a webcam.. the video file would be set as the webcam? so i guess it would have to be configured on each computer. but only being an a-level student that hasnt really done any program stuff before i wouldnt know where to start.
anyone else think its a good idea to use a webcam for a deskscape? i guess the quailty could be poor... but thats why tv or a video camera might be a better idea?
