WebCamImageSave Description

A webcam can easily double as a surveillance tool if you have the necessary software to manage the recording of video or of still images. NirSofer’s WebCamImageSave is designed as very simple way to automatically capture an image at a user-defined time interval and store it locally.No installation necessaryThe program does not require installation and provided that there is a webcam attached to the system it can work out of the box. In this case the video window of the application should automatically display images from the camera. However, when started for the first time the panel with capture options is also presented. This is where you can configure the application to save captured images to a specific location. Simple configurationMoreover, WebCamImageSave can be set to take a snapshot every few seconds and save it with a specific JPEG quality. Keep in mind that a higher quality leads to a larger output file and a shorter capture frequency results in a large number of files. Each image is stamped with the time it was captured at and the current date. The mark can be positioned to any of the corners. Furthermore, the user is presented with the possibility to select a certain color for the text and choose the hue for the shade. Also configurable is the name of the file, which can be a custom one or derived from the time and date values, which would be our recommendation for easier reaching a point in time when reviewing the pictures. ConclusionWebCamImageSave has a smooth learning curve even for a beginner user as it does not include any complicated options; this may also be the reason that some users might discard it. Any trouble that may appear should generally be attributed to the VFW API it relies on for getting the media content. Reviewed by Ionut Ilascu, last updated on March 24th, 2014
