I've used VLC before. Its a swiss army knife for video playback with capture capability. Crazy big dependency list. It may be a bit overkill if all you what is a simple webcam software.
Ed, Yep, there were 48 dependencies not installed here. Took a while to get them installed but vlc did build. Looks like it needs a detailed user guide.
webcamoid looks interesting, I'll have to check it out.
The UI when it's loaded is quite distracting. Cute, but distracting.
wxcam on Slackbuilds,org. VERY minimal and few bells and whistles. I might drop it when Slackware current -> 15.0 in favor of maybe webcamoid.
I'll look at that, too. What I want to do first is in the 'screen capture' category rather than the 'webcam capture' category. I use impressive to present the beamer PDFs in my presentations and I need to learn how to display the pdf 'slides' using impressive during a webinar. Attendees can see it full screen (I'll be speaking, too) and I will have it in a window within the webinar hosting software. Much to learn and now's the time to learn it.
