This feature is expected as part of the next major release of ZionWorx (v3.0).
The hardware required will be any video input:
- video file
- camera input
The camera input must be a device e.g. it could be firewire or composite/s-video via a video card or a webcam.
These should be chosen as per your needs, but generally will not be very expensive. A std camera will give great image resolution compared to a normal webcam. Digital via firewire may provide other software benefits like being able to control the camera's zoom from the desktop.
We currently use an old video camera and a tv card with composite video input. We use it to display video feed to adjacent rooms using VLC (an excellent and powerful opensource media player and streamer). The TV/Video card was a R200 (less than $30)
