Simulating a IP camera (MJPEG)

Hi,

I'm working on some sort of surveillance project for my thesis. As a first
step I want to simulate an IP camera with GStreamer that outputs MJPEG. I'm
trying to do this:

gst-launch-0.10 videotestsrc ! ffmpegcolorspace ! jpegenc ! multipartmux !
tcpserversink port=3000

And then load this little HTML snippet into firefox:

<html>
  <head>
    <title>Gstreamer testing</title>
  </head>
<body>
 <h1>Testing a dummy camera with GStreamer</h1>
 <img src="http://localhost:3000" class="" alt="" />
 <hr />
</body>
</html>


That won't do it, since it's only doing output to a TCP port, but it does
not do it with proper HTTP headers and I believe that's why firefox won't
understand this stream. Is there a plugin that can do that (encapsulate
data, like MJPEG) into a proper HTTP stream?
