parallel port quickcam was cool a while back but now forget it.  Spend the
few dollars you will be a lot happier.

As far as I am aware, this is an impossibility.
The problem lies in how you plan on sending a Parallel port input (quickcam
video) over a network....
and to what you are going to send it to.

I am sure that the quickcam software does not have any allowance for this.
You may want to check with the manufacturer to see if you can license the
Quickcam SDK or something?

Best result.... Shell out the 100 bucks for a Videum card.  They are the low
cost, high performance video capture workhorse.

Is it possible for the NetShow Encoder to encode a video signal (using
software only, no video capture card) that is sent to it over a network by
a QuickCam?

thanks, stuart
