Video Capture
You don't need a high-end digital video camera to make fun movies to share with friends and family. WebCam Companion makes capturing and editing video from your webcam fast and fun. Trim video and adjust brightness and contrast with ease. Save your video in formats that are convenient for sharing over the Web (including email). Save your favorite moments from captured video as still images for your collection. WebCam Companion supports high-resolution video capture up to 1280x1024 (with supported hardware).
Motion Detection
If you're using your webcam to monitor a room or area, it's important for you to be aware whenever there's movement in the camera's view. WebCam Companion automatically starts capturing footage when your webcam picks up movement. Not only that, you'll be notified via email or FTP that a new recording has been made.
Video Chat
Chatting online with a friend or family member? Make keeping in touch even more personal by letting your chat buddy see you. WebCam Companion includes shortcuts that automatically launch or download popular chat programs, such as Yahoo! Messenger, MSN Messenger, AIM and Skype.
Editing Snapshots
Webcams are used primarily to stream video, but WebCam Companion lets you take snapshots with a variety of editing commands. Adjust for lighting with easy-to-use brightness and contrast controls, and even adjust sharpness to help compensate for movement. Flip photos around to create mirror images, and undo/redo changes with a single click. Resize images by pixel resolution or by percentage.
Album Management
With a webcam, you build up a large collection of video and image files and it can become difficult to find just the file you're looking for as your collection grows. WebCam Companion has a convenient album function for you to organize your files as soon as you create them. Organize your captures into albums so you can easily find just the right file.
