Hi! I'm new to VDub, but I thought that it could help me with a problem. I need to record (not stream) from a webcam and store it to a mp4-file (H.264) automated. The command line help showed me the capstart-flag and it says that the time is optional... but how to stop it? My problem is, that I cannot predict how long the video needs to be, so I want to start capturing with the first command and stop(and save) the video with the second command, but there is no "capstop" or similar. Hope this is not impossible |

Currently, VirtualDub doesn't support this -- it would require communicating with an instance that's already running. All of the commands that are provided now only just tell a new instance what to do on startup, so they haven't required this plumbing. |
