There is a thing called zoneminder which I've played with but not used
seriously. I got it working without too much fuss and it seems to do what you want.

My flats have had a series of fires (B****Y Idiots) and I want to hook
up a webcam and record all the comings and goings from the building.
Fortunately I can do this from my kitchen window.
Is there a way to snapshot every second and discard any significant
duplicate pictures, pictures would also need to be watermarked with the
time.
I then want to be able to replay a section of time that is the best
estimate of when the fire was set. I may not be home / awake.
From a hardware point of view, can I extend the USB wire as I need
about 3m extra. Would it still work.
