RE: Motion detection, pictures and notification

["Stuart Billinghurst" <stuart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've been using gotcha motion capture software and found it to be fairly
stable..

you can see the pix by clicking on front door webcam from
www.stylishhouse.com (Rest of site is no where near finished yet.
(Camera is micromark b&w from B&Q)

http://www.gotchanow.com/ there is
a multi cam and single cam version.

Hi all

A friend mailed me a question and I would very much appreciate some
advice
for my answer. This guy has just got a new fast PC (2.8 P4 etc.) and
ADSL
but has no HA kit or experience. So, what he would like to do is:

<Quote>
I wish to have my pc detect motion , take a photo using the web cam (or
tvcard) and then email it to a specific address immediately.

I have one of the Trust 4 input CCTV type capture cards which I think
would
do this but it is only installed, I have never played.

Can folks tell me their recommendation or their setup that does this
please.
I have no doubt that budget will come into this somewhere so better
steer
clear of the mega expensive solutions.

Thanks

Ian
