How can I record a video using my webcam?

How can I record/capture webcam video using HTML5 and then store it on a remote server?

  • I need to record a video on the client's machine using HTML5 browser capabilities with permissions and then store them on a remote server. I am new to HTML5. Please help me with the steps I should take care of, in order to do this.

  • Answer:

    You should checkout http://CameraTag.com. While it's not entirely HTML5 the interface is so you can customize it using CSS. They will also host and stream the recorded videos for you. Depending on what you're doing you might be able to get away with using their free tier.
