Description

HasciiCam makes it possible to have live ascii video on the web. It captures video from a tv card and renders it into ascii, formatting the output into an html page with a refresh tag or in a live ascii window or in a simple text file as well, giving the possiblity to anybody that has a bttv card, a linux box and a cheap modem line to show a live asciivideo feed that can be browsable without any need for plugin, java etc.

Features:

low bandwidth live cam "streaming"
command line settings
customizable refresh rate
amazing live mode
gives you the coolest .plan you ever had
draws nifty symbols on your face
