Webcam ActiveX Control

I am in need of a simple webcam ActiveX control. I know that Microsoft supplies one, but I will need one of my own. This control will be used in an application that allows users to chat and view webcams. I need the control to be completely made by you, not simply a modification of another control. The control needs to have several methods, such as : [login to view URL](FilePath) [login to view URL](hDC) [login to view URL](objSocket) And some events like these would be great : Control_ImageProgress(Progress) Control_ImageSent() Explinations : The CaptureImage(FilePath) method will capture the current image from the webcam and save it to a file on the hard drive. I would like to have the choice of saving it as a .jpg or .bmp. If that requires use of a third-party DLL, then that is fine by me, as long as you have been granted permission to use it commercially. The PlaceImage(hDC) method will capture the current image from the webcam and place it onto a control with an hDC property (such as a form, picturebox, etc). The SendImage(objSocket) method will capture the current image from the webcam, and send it over a socket. For example, if I had a Winsock control in my project, and wanted to send the current image over it, I could use : Call [login to view URL](Winsock1). I would really like to have the option of sending the image with .jpg compression or with no compression at all (.bmp). That is not required, but it would definately help. The ImageSending(Progress) event will let the coder (me), know how much of the image has been sent. It would be great if the Progress argument would return the progress in percentile, such as "50" meaning 50% of the file has been sent. And of course the ImageSent() event will let me know when the image has finished sending. One more thing that would be good, if you could license it or something, so when I use it in my programs and people install them, they won't be able to put them into their own applications, but still be able to use it on mine. I've never developed many ActiveX controls, and I do not know how that all works, but hopefully you do. :) Note : I would perfer if you gave me a sample that would demonstrate simple things, such as capturing an image from a webcam to a file, etc. I am not asking for the source code, simply an executable or something that would demonstrate. Thanks for your time bidding! ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Installation package that will install the software (in ready-to-run condition) on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) Complete ownership and distribution copyrights to all work purchased. ## Platform Windows 98, 98SE, 2000, XP Home, XP Corp.
