I have set up a webcam capture within my asp.net project which works fine locally.

However once deployed i get this error

webcam.js error: no supported webcam interface found

It seems the application has to run over HTTPS but i am not able to change this on the server.

Does anyone know of a suitable alternative to this jquery file?

    This is a browser limitation (media fetch must be over ssl), and all libraries will have the same issue. Years ago you could fall back to flash for accessing the media, but this is no longer an option.

    Note: Non-ssl is only supported for localhost.

    ok thanks, it seems the remote app is using SSL my guess is there is some other restrictions related to USB or connections....
