Grabbing a webcam image from a website
I want to grab a series of images from a webcam running on a public website
What I've got so far is:
load the page into a webboresercontrol
grab the whole screen and load into a picturebox
save to file
I do this every 10 seconds or so within a one hour time period
This works fine on my work PC but on my laptop at home (vb installed) it crashes after about 5 minutes and on the desk PC (vb not installed - running app as an exe) it crashes after about 3 minutes
Is there a better way of doing this?
Thanks
Re: Grabbing a webcam image from a website
How is the webcam image displayed on the website? Is it a single gif/jpeg file? Does the page auto-refresh?
I'd personally try & ditch the web browser control completely and just download the image file from the server every x seconds or whatever.
