Webcam Timelapse is a tool for easily creating timelapse videos with your webcam. Watch a plant grow, watch the clouds go by, or watch yourself slowly age. Some of it's features include: Adjustable delays (seconds, minutes, hours, or days). A one click reverse button for creating backward playing videos. Daily self picture mode. Mirrored mode. Adjustable video compression. Auto start up on windows login.
Oddly, it can't find or use the built-in webcam (Acer Crystal Eye), but works with a separate webcam plugged in.
Strictly speaking this is a time-lapse app, and I was hoping for a sub-1 sec time resolution. One frame/second is its lowest rate.

Pros
So far it works great, recorded 8 hours turned the computer off and it came up with no problems
Cons
Only thing I can say about this program is that it could be better video graphics
Summary
Just maybe the others just don't have a big enough computer, I really don't know! I've tried it on a laptop and desktop with no problems
Doesn't work!

Pros
Great idea! User Friendly layout.
Cons
"Choose Camera" button did not work. So without being able to select a source, this program is useless.
Summary
"Choose Camera" button did not work. I shutdown and restarted the program but it still didn't work. I also tried "Run as Administrator" but that also didn't work. I tested to see if webcam was working and it was.
I am using Windows 7 with two webcams available.
Seems great but horrible underneath

Pros
Decent interface, easy to understand and does what I wanted
Cons
Worked great at the start then crashed my computer overnight. Restarted and the camera dropdown menu would no longer pull up nor would the start button do anything. Tried reinstalling and that did nothing. Had to delete the program file and reinstall to get the camera menu to work but the it could not find the webcam that I was using any more. Other software can but this cannot access it anymore for some reason.
Summary
Incredibly annoying because this is exactly what I was looking for I thought I was done and then BAM it sucks. Try it if you want but don't get your hopes up.
