Recording webcam seesions

Hi all

I understand there are freeware packages out there to do this but wondered if anyone has tried any and had good success ?

Any recommendations

Many thanks

I'd use Windows Media Encoder. Google for it. You can select an area of the screen - e.g. the webcam window - and record for however long you like. Free, too. :)

Re: Recording webcam seesions

Yeh I'm pretty bored : You got a link to this webcam so that I can correlate transport protocols with an appropriate capture device....

I'll do some vigorous testing for you also for free [ Replace vigorous with dedicated ]

Well, that's a good question... I suppose I'd have to see the relevant recordings to take a guess.

Anyway, are you admitting to something here Pia??!! ;) :eek:

Hypercam, brilliant little tool.

Free version puts tiny logo top of each video but you don't really notice it.

I'd never dream of doing such a thing, i'm a classy bird you know:erm:, but i'm intrigued as to why you'd want to record webcam if you weren't doing something other than sitting looking at a screen;)

I use VisionGS (http://www.visiongs.de/). Personal Edition is free, Business Edition has some useful extras and doesn't cost a great deal. I use this application at work with webcams as a cheap security camera, out-of-hours images stored on a server for six weeks. The application also has a motion detection function.

In order to make such a video public, won't Pia have to accept some forms saying that she can be referred to "chav activity" and it be posted on the internet? :D

I see a slap coming >_<

go for the simplest and easyest option and use VLC
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

you could also use any of the other apps people are pointing to at the same time (assuming good enough CPU)if you use this analogue (not DVB)video spitter that paul1974 found
http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...7&postcount=64

http://www.splitcamera.com/
"SplitCam

SplitCamera is a freeware virtual video clone and split video capture driver for connecting several applications to a single video capture source.

Usually, if you have a web camera or video camera connected to your computer, you cannot use it in more than one application at the same time, and there is no standard Windows options that makes it possible.

Split Camera driver allows you to easily multiply your web-camera (any models), video cameras ( any model: analog or ditial : VHS, DV, TV-IN or TV-tunner ) in video chat or video conference software like ICQ, Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, Skype Video, Camfrog, AOL AIM, Pal Talk, or whatever... and to broadcast it to many users at a time.

With SplitCam you can connect up to 64 clients to a single video source. In a few words: Split Cam does just what its name says: it splits the video stream coming from the video source and tunnels it to numerous other client applications. "
