Publisher's Description
Active WebCam captures images up to 20 frames per second from any Video for Windows device including Video Cameras and USB cameras and broadcasts them either from your computer or through any FTP server. Viewers can watch real video, not still images like other software does. The captured video can be viewed using any Internet browser, no plug-ins or downloads required. Your camera can be used as a surveillance system. When the program detects motion in the monitored area, it can sound an alarm, e-mail you the captured images, start broadcasting, or record a video. It has features to add text captions to the images, to place a date/time stamp on each video frame, and to adjust the frame rate, picture size, and quality settings.

For the use I make of my webcam, I'd rate:
- Vintasoft Webcam a 4 (it's not perfect, but I like its simplicity and price tag),
- Active Webcam a 3 (the interface is somewhat less clear than it could be, and versions after 3.x tend to use my hard drive as if there was no buffering),
- WebcamXP a 1 (pricing and resources consumption is too high compared to its competitors, I had very bad experience with customer support, or rather lack of, plus the author has all negative reviews of his software deleted from BetaNews to maintain artificially a high rating, which I find appaling and dishonest).
