WebCamSnapShot

Tool name : WebCamSnapShot
 
Description : WebCamSnapShot is a tool that grabs a frame from the connected web cam and saves it in the BMP format to a file. There are different libraries to grab the picture from a web cam. Direct X, Video for Windows and other third party libs. In this tool I choose the Video for Windows variant.
The WebCamStillImage tool actually does the same but on some systems it doesn’t work properly and only a picture with black content is saved. This behaviour shouldn’t occur with this version.
 
Tested on : Windows XP
 
Feedback : In case you encounter any problems with the tool, you have suggestions to improve it, or you tested it with a Windows version i’ve not yet tested please drop me an email.
 
Downloads : Version 0.1 – Source & binary
