      Hi All,

      Just wondering the plausibility of the following scenario. I have MM running on my homelab and connect into it via an old PC (soon will be an old phone for power reasons, fml). Essentially this PC has a webcam connected to it for the intended use taking pictures of course.

      So the current solutions come down to modules such as SelfieShoot that uses local resources to the MM instance or deploy my webcam as a IP cam and then use a remoting module to display that feed… If there is another way please please let me know! Also yes the SelfieShoot moudule is likely not to work but I’m hopeful.

      The ideal scenario is if theres a way for the MM to request webcam access via the browser and then store that result locally on the MM container.
