So i decided to create a standalone application which fulfill this.
VLC is the most famous free, open source and cross-platform multimedia player on the planet. VLC Player has a framework that plays most multimedia video as DVD, Audio CD, VCD, RTSP, MMS and other various streaming protocols.
To let 3rd partners extend the features of VLC player, VLC Player is based on modules and plugins. Public API system of VLC is opened so that we can develop a VLC Plugin(actually, a dynamic link module) that seamlessly works with VLC Player to add new features to the standard VLC Player.
What Is VCam?
VCam(aka.virtual webcam) is a software generated webcam. You can add it to your computer and use it as a real camera. The content of VCam is completely customizable, you can set video files, screen, real webcam, IP Cam, TV cards, and even VLC Player as its output. Another benefit of VCam is it can edit and add video effects in real-time.
All Internet streaming/broadcasting software support reading data from webcam and VCam.
