Picture

Save live webcam images to your hard drive.

When you try to specify the drive/directory under the picture option, the drive drop-down list shows only local computer drives and not mapped network drives. However, you can work with a UNC path: \\servername\drive\dir, for example: \\john\d\webcam.

If you examine saved pictures in a picture viewer, you might lock an image file and the program will not be able to overwrite it. The Album section also locks the files. In addition, if you link the picture directory to a remote FTP one, the program will not be able to save during FTP uploading (the 'FTP Upload > Synchronization' feature).
