    Hi,

    First I just want to say Thanks! for giving it another shot. There appears to be some kind of strange corner-case that was causing a fatal error, blah blah blah. Yes - the server had died at some point, but I think it's fixed for now.

    If you could spare another minute, please go there again and test it out. http://www.devstack.com/kamaitachi-test/

      Hi, I finally got it to work on my Ubuntu system. There was a glitch though...and probably due to my system setup, and it accounted for the static bar I originally experienced. My camera needed to be initialized to Composite mode, and your Flash app didn't do it. I opened xawtv, set mode to Composite, and NTSC , then the Flash worked. It's a cool Flash app.

        Wow - thanks for the info.

        I wonder what that's all about, with the Composite mode, etc? There's no way to affect the camera's mode from Flash, so I figure it's just a Linux thing.

        After some more testing, it looks like timing is important as well. A few seconds must pass between clicking "Publish" and clicking "rec start" - otherwise nothing is recorded.
