# IP Webcam
|
|
|
|
[IP Webcam](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pas.webcam&hl=de&gl=US) is an App
|
|
developed and published by Pavel Khlebovich for [Android](/wiki/android.md) systems.
|
|
It enables a [smartphone](/wiki/smart_device.md) to be used as [webcam](/wiki/webcam.md).
|
|
|
|
When wanting to stream the screen and not the camera the application
|
|
[ScreenStream](/wiki/android/screenstream.md) can be used.
|
|
|
|
## Setup

|
|
[Google Play Store](/wiki/android.md#app-store) in a package called
|
|
[IP Webcam](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pas.webcam&hl=de&gl=US).
|
|
|
|
## Usage

|
|

|
|
USB-cable.
|
|
After starting the application an IPv4 link be displayed.

|
|
[ffmpeg](/wiki/linux/ffmpeg.md) on [Linux](/wiki/linux.md) systems to create a virtual webcam
|
|
device as explained in the
|
|
[ffmpeg entry](/wiki/linux/ffmpeg.md#create-a-virtual-camera-using-an-ip-video-stream).
|
|
The link used for applications like this will be the previously displayed IPv4 link aswell as an
|
|
appended `/videofeed`.
