i am creating a GUI for a camera.
the video will be shown on a self created web browser.
What is the code for the engine which can display videos in web browsers?
An example of code: Gtk::MozEmbed.new (this is the embedded version of firefox)

Web browsers can't play video (animated gif's, and SVG animations excepting).

You could (should) look at the applications called "cheese" and "camorama".

Most all browsers should be able to do gif/streaming jpgs. It depends entirely though on what kind of video stream is being sent to you. You didn't specify what language, but gstreamer is a good library for dealing with video. If it is a streaming image, mozembed wouldn't be a bad idea. Good luck.

Create a GUI for an ethernet camera.
This is the camera:-

So i am now planning to create a GUI for it using an internet browser.

Or do you guys have any other suggestions?
