Open source portable/cross-platform video camera capture library

Viewed 8144

I like to know if there's a open-source, cross-platform library for capturing web-cam data. Any other suggestions are welcome in case such solutions are not available. I am looking for something similar to portaudio if possible but this is not absolutely mandatory.

Also open-source & cross-platform projects falling into this category are a good starting point.

Thanks in advance,

Iulian

Libraries found:

portvideo. Does anyone have any experience with it?

reactivision. This one seems to be pretty cool and well supported.

libvidcap. Didn't manage to test it under Linux for the moment.

opencv and its highgui project
