AMCap is a small yet fully functional video capture and preview application.
AMCap is a small video capture utility which allows you to capture video from a webcam, TV Tuner card, or other video capture device, and save the video to your hard drive in a variety of formats.
AMCap can also be used to display live video from your capture device, and it has a number of advanced features for configuring the video capture process. It can adjust the brightness, contrast, and saturation of the video, as well as the ability to apply video effects.
Save your captures in different formats
Support both AVI and MPEG video saving, AMCap makes recording webcam videos so easy. Some additional features include applying special effects (like alpha-blending, transparency, overlays) and can take still screenshot images on the fly.
Newer features include DV camcorder and TV tuner support, better compression, zooming and full-screen support.
In addition to its capture capabilities, AMCap also includes a number of advanced features for configuring the video capture process. These features include the ability to adjust the brightness, contrast, and saturation of the video, as well as applying video effects. AMCap also supports hardware acceleration, which can improve the performance of the video capture process on some systems.
In closing
Overall, this is a very simple video capturing tool and doesn't feature very many advanced functions. It doesn't really work as a viable surveillance tool because video files take up so much space without much needed compression. It also does not take automatic screenshots, which was a let down.
With that said, if you do just want a simple utility to record from your webcam, AMCap might be what you're looking for.
