Webcam question

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
Say you set up a video link via a forum type website (Habbo Hotel), open only to members, but anybody can sign up, can anybody else get into that?

Is it possible/easy to record a video shown over a webcam to your computer? Is there any way to trace with whom the link was established, who viewed it and how they used it?

    You can monitor who is visiting the page by using something like http://www.statcounter.com/ , and i'm almost positive that it's possible for someone to record your cam feed however i'm not sure how to do it or for that matter how to avoid them doing it.

    It's very easy to record cam streams, screen recording software is usually used. I can't think of a way to easily prevent that from happening.
