AMCap is a great tool for anyone who needs to work with webcams. It is easy to use and has a lot of options for setting up the source recognition parameters and capturing the video signal. The fullscreen mode is especially useful for capturing video with high resolution. Highly recommended!
AMCap is a small yet fully functional video capture application compatible with Microsoft DirectShow (formerly ActiveMovie, hence the name). It is based on the sample AMCap source code from the Microsoft DirectX 9 SDK. I added many features that I was requested, including:
Still capture (Ctrl+L) in BMP, JPEG and PNG
Support for compression (Windows Media 9 Series only)
Remember Video Input, Video Standard and Video size from previous session
Full screen mode (ALT+Enter)
Support for multi-monitor (using VMR9)
Caption bar and menu on/off (F11)
Always on top feature (F12)
