I'm looking for some really simple software to broadcast video from a webcam.
PC is running Vista, web cam is a standard MS one.
All I'd like to be able to do is access the output from the camera in a web-browser. I can take care of all the networking, so just need the software.
Anybody have good experience here?

Not used it myself but I think VLC can do this.
About VLC
VLC media player is a highly portable multimedia player supporting most audio and video formats (H.264, Ogg, DivX, MKV, TS, MPEG-2, mp3, MPEG-4, aac, ...) from files, physical media (DVDs, VCD, Audio-CD), TV capture cards and many network streaming protocols.
It can also convert media files, transcode and act as a streaming server over unicast or multicast and IPv4 or IPv6. It doesn't need any external codec, program or codec pack to work.

FFMpeg will help you very much. Get it here http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com . It is a little exe file without dlls, and also works in command line.
