Recording with iSight

I was wondering if there are any apps out there that use isight to just record video, like a security camera type thing.
any suggestions?
 
iMovie can do that.

Eats up massive amounts of HD space, though. Maybe there's a better program out there for this purpose that records in a lower quality to conserve HD space.
 
The iVeSeen application looks pretty interesting. Does anyone have any experience with it? It would be nice to have an inexpensive video recording application I could use to send "video mail" to my kids while on long business trips.

iVe used it. 😛 I no longer have it, but it was great when I did! You can change the quality to a preset "e-mail" setting so that the files would be small enough to e-mail! All the programs Boinx makes are awesome...especially iStopMotion!

Oh yeah, for for iVeZeen...at $14.99, you can't beat it!
 
QuickTime Broadcaster can capture and encode to all the QT codecs, instead of capturing to DV (which is like 13 GB/hour) with iMovie.

Gives you nice small files in one step, if you don't want to buy QT Pro.

Nice 😉

Glad you liked it. As you say, for a mere $15, it seems like a nice thing to have around. Thanks for the input.
