I finally got this working. Using Chrome (21.0.1180.89 m) I'm able to save snapshot images, but when using IE (v8) or Firefox (), the images don't seem to save (the camera works though in the browser window though).

In Chrome's console, it's logging errors:
POST http://example.com/picture/1/ 500 (INTERNAL SERVER ERROR) jquery.min.js:16
d.support.ajax.d.ajaxTransport.send jquery.min.js:16

$.fn.webcam.webcam.capture jquery.webcam.js:69
(anonymous function) /medapp/camera/:104
d.event.handle jquery.min.js:16
d.event.add.k.handle.m

In Firefox's error console, it's logging errors:
[12:48:10.971] TypeError: webcam.capture is not a function @ camera:104

In IE, I can't see any errors.

Any ideas? I don't know how I could debug that 500 error...

Hi, I've tried to use your app but I could not. I added the CamField to my model and form, then tried to load the widget on the template but although it renders, it doesn't show the flash cam preview (the main part). The admin demo doesn't work for me either, so I don't know if it is me who don't know how to use it or if the app is broken (I see the last update was 5 months ago).

If you have some spare time could you give it a look?, I would really like to use this.

Cheers!

Do not save the file an error occurs.
Open the media folder and there is no saved file.

I see that you are loading JQuery with the CamField widget. I wonder if this is the ideal thing to do because, I think, there is a huge possibility that JQuery have already been loaded before on the template and therefore JQuery would be downloaded multiples times. What do you think?, maybe saying in the docs that JQuery must be loaded before the windget would be enough.
