Webcam Flix for Windows

User Reviews

• Free Trial - works, but clumsy. Not quite ready.

  brett_cgb7/6/2013

  Pros

  Does what it's supposed to. Generates images of various dimensions. Individual frames can be used used by other applications (stacking comes to mind). Good for seeing if this is the kind of application you're looking for.

  Cons

  Most of what you need to do to make this usable requires edits to the registry (explained in FAQ online). Does not use all available resolution settings of webcam (Logitech C615). If stopped before a video is generated, does not seem to be able to create videos when restarted. I suspect the only thing $10 gets you is removal of the "License this software" banner in every image.

  Summary

  This might be worth $10 if all the required controls are implemented in the user interface instead of requiring registry edits. Not quite ready for general release.

• No. Nope. Pass. Move along. Don't bother.

  Pros

  Free trial.

  Cons

  Free trial a waste of time. Default save folder is C: Clutters up HDD with jpegs. No preview. 8 hours of shooting takes ~12 hours to render on an XP P4 w/1G RAM. Time stamp stamps if it feels like it.

  Summary

  Worth no more than 10¢, to me.

• Easy to use software. Compatible with many cameras.

  JDells10/7/2009

  Pros

  Very easy to use. Launches quickly and adopts the camera settings (brightness control, contrast, backlighting, color, etc.) to whatever camera I hook up to my computer.

  Cons

  Have to edit some lines of the registry in order to compile videos with pre-existing pictures in the folder.

  Summary

  I have been using Webcam Flix since version 1. I have taken hundreds of time lapses with several different cameras. The software has never failed to perform. It is not a sophisticated piece of software, but does a superb job.

• good, but not worth paying for.

  Arzan878/8/2008

  Pros

  Nice and simple to use, produce decent results.

  Cons

  The program crashed a few times when I was using a large amount of images, and not being able to use pictures from other sources is not so great.

• This does what it's supposed to do: Time-Lapse simple and easy

  RimskyLeto8/6/2006

  Pros

  It's simple and easy. Above all, it's cheap ;) My Sony DCR-HC22E camcorder works like a charm with it.

  Cons

  It might have support for output paths and sizeable video. <p>Allso the lapse period could be set in config and keyboard settable, instead of each time starting at 1 and changing with a spin box

  dand20003/20/2006

  Pros

  I liked the concept, only $5 to buy, a simple tool to do what you think would be simple.

  Cons

  Couldn't get it to work.

• Excellent and affordable!

  NoExcusesYAC3/6/2006

  Pros

  This does all that I would have wanted and a little more, and comes at a VERY affordable cost. The maker of the software is very quick to reply to questions and his emails are non-automated and friendly. Definately a recommended product.

  Cons

  It doesn't feature an exposure setting, which can result in slightly choppy animation at higher frame intervals. I can't complain about this, as long exposure time is very difficult with digital photography. However, it looks as if it might be put in for version 2, and the creator of the software also makes a program called 'Exposure', which does long exposure shots.

• You get what you pay for
