Capturing (AVI) Video Using Webcam Express
Now that you have your camera installed you can use it to capture short
movies called AVI files. The length of time you can record an AVI file
while the camera is connected to your computer will vary, depending on
how much hard drive space you will use to save the file. Please take note
that these AVI files take up a lot of hard drive space. This is done through
the PhoTags WebCam Express program. This next section will walk you
though capturing an AVI file.
. Double-click the “WebCam Express” icon that is on your desktop
to launch the “PhoTags WebCam Express” program. Adjust your
WebCam to the desired position. The screen will display what the
WebCam “sees”.
