I would like to stream live video from my PC to my Droid X (2.2) thru my website, any ideas?
Are there any applications that will work for stream live video most I have seen just work from videos stored on SD card.

So you want to stream videos from your PC to your X using your website? You planning on doing this over 3g or Wifi Only? Theres a ton of different ways this can be done, it just depends on your knowledge base and exactly what you want it to do...

You could install a local apache server and embed the videos into an intranet site to access via your X while at home, or you could point it to the net via dns and assuming you have a static ip could point your browser to the site via 3g... Theres also an App for accessing media files over 3g and wifi for android, its called Orb.

I need more info to help. ^ that should get you started lol.
 
Say if I wanted to access an Axis IP camera directly. I can do it with windows mobile and iPhone (safari) but nothing will work with droid. Is there a certain format you're aware of that the droid requires? Problem is they're not recorded videos....it's live video feed.
 
You can stream live flash to the X, you could always do realtime encoding to flash from wmv on your site and push it to the X that way...
