Editor review:

Active Webcam can capture and transmit images and video in real time through your webcam on the Internet, and without any complication with the full support system that incorporates the program.

The parameters of the picture you can set with the same ease as if you were in control of your home TV: brightness, color, contrast, and so on.

Just like the case with options regarding the publication and transmission of images on the network. The site from which transmits the video is automatically generated for your program, and you can customize to your liking (title, colors, etc..) Without having to know programming or web design. Active Webcam assistants do everything. As you can see, a very comprehensive.

But the benefits of Active Webcam not end there, as well as you can get extra features, very useful, such as copying images to the Windows clipboard, capturing images in JPG or AVI video format, video functions ( detect motion in a fixed scenario), with a password protection on the recording or insert a watermark.
