Video capture from webcam on Mac?

[Joseph Chase]

Is there a cross-platform solution for video capture from a webcam?

I am aware of the Win32 videocapture library, but am unaware of how to 
accomplish the same functionality on the Mac side.

Thanks in advance.

Problems posting with urlencode

[Joseph Chase]

I have the following form :


Created
User
Auction title
Auction url
Modification rec
State


I post the form data with the following calls:

params = urllib.urlencode({"auction[user]" :user, 
"auction[auction_title]": auction_title,"auction[auction_url]": auction_url, 
"auction[modification_rec]" :recommendation, "auction[state]=": 
state,"commit":"Create"})

print "Storing"
data = urllib.urlopen(self.baseUrl,params)


When I go and view the inserted record, the record exists, but the field 
values are null.  It is my thinking that the backend needs the "id" value 
for each input value; how do I add that data to the urlencode() call?

When I utilize the above form, all is inserted and all of the field values 
appear.  What data am I not accounting for with my program; for its obvious 
that the browser is sending something to the server that my application is 
not.

Thanks.

I can't wait to try this out.  We'll see how it stacks up next to ROR.

Managment of Python Libraries

[Joseph Chase]

I am new to Python.

In the past, I have noticed that I have spent a lot of time managing my C++ 
libraries.  When my personal frameworks got large enough, and some moving 
around/refactoring was apparent, it was an absolute nightmare.

As I embark on the wonderful language of Python, or there any object 
organizational tools that may help me to keep order?

Thanks everyone.

Monitoring Outgoing Connections?

[Joseph Chase]

Is it possible to write a client within Python that would trigger some sort 
of callback interface when the user is attempting to make an outgoing TCP/IP 
connection?  I'd like to accomplish this on a Windows XP box.

Is this something that could be accomplished with the Twisted framework, or 
am I going to have to dive in the platform specific API?

TIA.
