Mac Software for Webcams

Hi again everyone,

Is there any software that can be used for the Mac when using a webcam? It seems that I only see software for the PC and I only have Macs.

Thanks,
Bob Hardy

Hi Robert,

I use Keith's image stacker to process my webcam images. It isn't as versatile as Registax but the latest version is much improved and relatively easy to use.

For capturing the .mov files I use BTV Pro which is an excellent webcam capture software that will work with just about any webcam or digital video source. The non pro version will also work, it just isn't quite as versatile.

Here is an image I produced with my C9.25, ToUcam, and Mac a couple months ago. If I remember correctly, it was about 100 frames that I averaged.
