I want to code C# to create simple application about send/receive signal camera(webcam) between 2 laptop. More details, I have 2 laptop, with laptop 1 is turn on its webcam and sending picture(signal - i dont know which words can descripe it, hope you know what I mean) from laptop 1 to laptop 2 via wifi.
I spend a couple day try to turn on webcam on laptop 1, but it doesn't (I'm using Microsoft Expression Encoder 4 library, I heard that DirectShowLib can do that).

Is somebody able to understand what he means ?

1 solution

um, I think he is asking:

How do I stream my webcam images over my network (wifi in my instance) to another computer. I am using Expression Encoder 4 library for the video composition.

Knowing this is not enough. What OS, webcam make, technology (WPF, Winforms) etc.

My first point of call would be this article.

How to use a web cam in C# with .NET Framework 4.0 and Microsoft Expression Encoder 4[^]

You will need to create a client application that listens on a TCP port for the data stream. Once you receive a response from laptop1 you will be able to display on laptop 2 using the approach in the article.
