  • its easier to setup (select the driver then the video source)
  • it allows higher resolution image (from video type)
  • its uses less CPU!

in 10.17 beta :slight_smile:

(you will have to reset up the web cam direct capture again)

Hi,

Why “webimage.gif” change size?
In WD-setup size is set to 320x240 but when wd make that image, size is 295x189. So image lower part is missing.
Also image update is somehow wrong. Update interval is set 10min and inet update is 10min too. Still new image 1min interval in my hard disk (e.g. 2008webimage.gif, 2009webimage.gif…)

Cheers

Hi
Is it - or will it be possible with shorter update interval than 1 minute for web cam picture? I would prefer 10 sec. intervals.

ok, yes, i can add that
note there is an option to save to asf or avi or mpeg (see the streaming setup),so that you have a movie file
but I will add more options to limit the file size, etc
