I just noticed something new with the flash plugin, there are now settings like you find on a pc. It seems that flash has support for the microphone but there is also a video tab. The webcam doesn't show up as an option but it seems likely that it might in the future. Does anyone know how flash detects webcams with the desktop linux plugin?

I don't know how well it would work because video playback isn't great while its transfering data.a.a.
