WebCamManager1.0

WebCamManager allows you to easily view the live feed from the webcam and change certain parameters, regarding it. The software allows you to switch between several video input devices, in case two or more are connected to your computer, as well as record clips or capture images with the selected webcam.

Simple manager for webcams

WebCamManager can help you monitor the feed and configuration for the selected webcam. By default, the software consists of two windows, one displaying the live feed from the camera and the other containing a command ribbon.The live feed display window can serve a double purpose, namely indicate whether or not the webcam is correctly connected to the computer and help you preview the video/picture you are capturing. However, the feed is weak and the motion displayed in the previewing window is not always reflecting the real activity.

Webcam selection

You may easily switch between the feeds of different webcams, as long as they are all connected to the computer, from the dedicated window. Simply select the video source, then adjust the lightning options: brightness, contrast, hue, saturation, sharpness, white balance, gamma and backlight.These parameters can only be adjusted if they are supported by the webcam. Similarly, you may digitally modify focus, exposure, iris, tilt or pan.

Manage video capture

WebCamManager allows you to set video compression, modify format size, pixel depth or maximum size. Moreover, you can enable the recording options from the Control button on the command ribbon.The software allows you to start or stop recording at any time. The video feed from the preview window reflects the video that is being saved. A dialog box indicates when the recording starts or stops.

Slow feedback

WebCamManager is a simple to use webcam recording tool, however its response is slow and it crashes many times, especially when you try to start the recording. You need to restart the application very often and the settings are not remembered: for example you need to specify the output folder for saving the video file each time.
