Top 23 Webcam Open-Source Projects

  • ScreenToGif

    🎬 ScreenToGif allows you to record a selected area of your screen, edit and save it as a gif or video.

  • Project mention: What happened to Captura? OSS maintainer burnout | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-06-08

    Currently I use a tool called ScreenToGif on Windows, which allows making both GIFs as well as render a video out of the captured sequence of frames: https://www.screentogif.com/ (source: https://github.com/NickeManarin/ScreenToGif)

    That said, a lot of open source software faces issues with funding and also developer burnout, or something other reasons for a project just... ceasing. Like there's this lovely piece of backup software called BackupPC, that covered all of my needs, but there hasn't been a new release in forever: https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc

    What's worse, sometimes the community is just left with no status updates, and don't even know whether a project is abandoned: https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc/issues/518

    In cases where nobody cares enough to make forks and keep it alive it just... fizzles out.

    I don't know anything about Xwayland, but according there's this sentence in this socat writeup:

    > If you want to access an X server that does not provide -listen tcp (Xwayland) or just did not have enabled it during startup (like most likely your host Xorg), you can use socat to provide TCP/IP access.
