Simple plugin that replaces the webcam image on the control tab with an iframe that loads the webcam url from the default settings.
Install via the bundled Plugin Manager or manually using this URL:
https://github.com/jneilliii/OctoPrint-WebcamIframe/archive/master.zip
Set your webcam stream url to the address of a web page to load within the iframe that replaces the default image on the control tab. For example, for a twitch url you can use something like https://player.twitch.tv/?channel=jneilliii&muted=true
