Software to record movies?

[Emper0r]

Hey guys I just ordered this web cam from Newegg:

Newegg.com - Logitech 640 x 480 30fps USB Interface QuickCam Messenger XP WebCam-White Box - OEM

Now I'm wondering what a good software is where I can use this web cam to record movies onto my hard drive? My friend recommended Quicktime pro, what do you guys think?

The Logitech QuickCam software comes with a movie recorder although it's not too great. Quicktime is good enough for that camera. A camera with that resolution won't have any kind of amazing movie quality. I would stick to the free versions of movie software. To do basic editing just use MovieMaker or something along that line.

What he said. If you wanna record like home videos, a decent video camera and quicktime would be a big step up.
