snap shot remote shared object question

Question

HI I'd like to take a snapshot of video from a webcam and
then store that snapshot either as a file or as an object in a
remote shared object anybody know how that can be accomplished? I
also need to know how to store a picture in a remote shared object
...the picture in this case is being brought into flash using
loadMovie.

If you're using loadMovie, you need to extract an image from the recorded flv file. FFMPEG does this quite nicely.

About the use of the sharedObject, you can use it to store/sync the location of the image file, but you couldn't store the image itself in the SO (well... you could, but you'd have to break it down to pixel data and that would make for an awfully big SO).
