title: Save video captured from webcam using Flash
body: <p>I'd like to use Flash to capure video from the user's webcam and then save it on the same server that hosts the Flash file. The web server will be running ASP.Net technology. Seems easy, right?</p>
  
  <p>Lot of searches yielded the same lines of code to start a webcam capture using Flash. I can't find anything that sends that captured video back to a server. </p>
  
  <p>I can find lots of blog and forum posts that imply 3rd party software or Flash Communication Server is required to collect it on the server, but I don't understand why. </p>
  
  <p>It seems like Flash ought to be able to capture some video and send it as an HTTP post to the same server that hosts the Flash file. That's pretty basic Flash/webcam functionality, right? It seems like we don't need to introduce 3rd party dependencies just yet.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know where these extra lines of sample ActionScript code might be hiding?</p>
