MJPEG Streamer with raspicam input plugin (based on raspistill mmal source code)
Simply compile with 'make clean all' from within the mjpeg streamer experimental folder
Youll need to have cmake and a dev version of libjpeg installed. I used libjpeg62-dev.
Probably best in this thread http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=45178
you can run from the mjpeg streamer experimental folder with:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.
./mjpg_streamer -o "output_http.so -w ./www" -i "input_raspicam.so"
You can specify options, like in raspivid
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.
./mjpg_streamer -o "output_http.so -w ./www" -i "input_raspicam.so -x 1280 -y 720 -fps 15 -ex night"
It does support upto 1080p 30fps, but the bandwidth produced would be more than the usb bus (and therefore ethernet port / wifi dongle) can provide. 720p 15fps is a good compromise.
Here's some Help:

The following parameters can be passed to this plugin:
[-fps | --framerate]...: set video framerate, default 1 frame/sec
[-x | --width ]........: width of frame capture, default 640
[-y | --height]....: height of frame capture, default 480
[-y | --height]....: height of frame capture, default 480
[-quality]....: set JPEG quality 0-100, default 85
[-usestills]....: uses stills mode instead of video mode
-sh : Set image sharpness (-100 to 100)
-co : Set image contrast (-100 to 100)
-br : Set image brightness (0 to 100)
-sa : Set image saturation (-100 to 100)
-ISO : Set capture ISO
-vs : Turn on video stablisation
-ev : Set EV compensation
-ex : Set exposure mode (see raspistill notes)
-awb : Set AWB mode (see raspistill notes)
-ifx : Set image effect (see raspistill notes)
-cfx : Set colour effect (U:V)
-mm : Set metering mode (see raspistill notes)
-rot : Set image rotation (0-359)
-hf : Set horizontal flip
-vf : Set vertical flip
---------------------------------------------------------------
Some of the camera options like ISO may not work due to it not working in the mmal-libs.
Video mode is the default as it allows much smoother video (higher framerates). Stills mode allows you to use the full-frame of the sensor, but has a max framerate of around 8fps, probably less.
There's no preview output shown on the raspi screen.
This should run indefinately. ctrl-c closes mjpeg streamer and raspicam gracefully.
