Stream video from your Windows PC to iPhone or iPad.
iCamSource is a program which will stream video from your Windows PC to an iOS. Despite the Windows application being freeware, it should be noted that the client application that runs on iPhones and iPads is in fact not free.
The application is a server that runs on your PC which can stream video sources such as webcams, IP cameras, DV cameras and can also record video while you're away. iCamSource can also broadcast monitoring to the web so that you may check your web browser to monitor cameras while you're away.
The program is interesting in that it supports motion detection of cameras that it's monitoring. For example, if you have a camera setup at your desk and your cat decides to sit in range, iCamSource will notify you via its iPhone app. Movement sensitivity can be tweaks to be more and less sensitive.
One drawback of iCamSource is its lack of audio functionality. It will not record audio but it does broadcast it so you will be able to also hear what's going on from your phone.
