Hello All,

I know this is one the oldest in the book but please hear me out

I have this software webcamXP that captures the video from my surveillance camera then creates and image called cam\_1.jpg every capture. That image acts like a strip of film, every time the software passes over it, there is a new image creating the effect of video.

This is what I am trying to do. I can pull the image into flash no problem (using the loader component) but I cant figure out how to refresh the image so its look like video.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
