WaterMarking with WebcamMax
With all the great raves about them here on SW: I finally broke down and bought WebcamMax. i am trying to figure out how to properly watermark my feed with them and it doesn't talk about it in any of the other threads here. I noticed it has an add text option but the damn thing is so confusing to me. i customized the text to how i wanted it but it only appears on my feed whenever i move my cam around. this is so weird and foreign to me. i am so familiar with manycam. anyone who is familiar with watermarking they're feed with webcammax, please help? :)

Re: WaterMarking with WebcamMax
Manycams sucks balls! lol. It made my laptop very glitchy. I would record videos and they wouldnt have sound or wouldnt record right and I would have to reshoot (much to my frustration). I also had issues streaming. Webcam Max is a million times better
To add txt I just use the text icon on the upper right hand corner. It never blinks for me =/ I dont even know how to get it to blink lol. Just to verify, you are clicking on the last icon in blue, not the icon before for flash right? I know its a sllly question but just making sure =)

Re: WaterMarking with WebcamMax
i finally got it to stay. yay!
i have been splitcamming with sm encoder and manycam alone would freeze the stream right up. i used both manycam and splitcam at the same time to stream both sites. it worked great that way but left my stream a little fuzzy so that is when i broke down and bought webcammax. it is such a great software definitely worth it.

thnx! yes i did click the blue text icon (very last one in the row) and i dunno it just kept blinking automatically as soon as i added the text to my feed, weird. i finally got it to stay put after fucking with it for so long, lol.

Re: WaterMarking with WebcamMax
Ok I might sound dumb, but is watermarking just putting ex: ©MyNameWebsite ? I've done that to some of my pics, but wasn't sure if I did it right lol.

Re: WaterMarking with WebcamMax
you can watermark with anything that u think will bring u business. i just put my name on my feed since most sites dont mind that. i havent watermarked my pics and vids yet but that will happen soon.

ManyCam & Lagging + Degrading Picture Quality
Does anyone else have a major issue with ManyCam causing your cam to lag behind by a couple seconds? Do you also notice it degrading the quality of your feed so its not as clear? I have noticed these things both on my old laptop and now on my new i7, so I know its not my computer. And its mostly only when I use it with the HD encoder- it lags in both ManyCam & the encoder (but when I use the encoder without ManyCam then its normal, so I know the issue lies in ManyCam). Just wondering if anyone else has this experience?
If you splitcam, which do you currently use to split your feed? ManyCam? ManyCam Pro? SplitCam? CamTwist? MagicCam? Other? And why do you like that one the best?

Re: ManyCam & Lagging + Degrading Picture Quality
Yup, I used to use ManyCam for ImLive and AdultWork, and it was causing too much lag and delay...even when I QUICKLY made sure to exit one program when getting a show on the other. So I stopped using ManyCam and tried the free version of VerySoft, as someone on here suggested. I liked it and wanted to buy the real software asap. But as soon as I spent money on it and tried using it, it wouldn't come up on the webcam list on the cam sites. :( So right now I see it as $20 wasted. I'll try it again sometime soon, since it IS already paid for.

I don´t have that problem (at yet?), but I have problems to take my video capture´s video to ManyCam. I bought Pro version =( Now I got that video, ´cause I louded another program using it.

Re: ManyCam & Lagging + Degrading Picture Quality
Manycam does degrade quality if you don't re-set it. Even then, it does degrade it a little bit. Make sure that your "force size" is set to your output size, and that should help a little!

...how do you do that? lol

Re: ManyCam & Lagging + Degrading Picture Quality
I have used manycam, splitcam, webcammax ( paid version), etc but the one I recommend is very-soft/webcamsplitter....that is what I use. I have the paid version and it is light, clear, and does not affect cam quality at all for me and I splitcam with like 5 sites with it and messengers for Indy shows.lol...

Yeah, I have the paid version of this, but for some reason, the last time I tried it VerySoft wasn't even showing up in the webcam list. :( I was trying to splitcam ImLive with AdultWork. This is the error message I just got when trying to open the software: "Unable to find software component VerySoft WebCamSplitter, WDM Streaming Driver."
So, in the meantime, I ended up just now downloading ManyCam again so I can splitcam ImLive with AW/JustCamIt (trying to make some money for Christmas spending). And what's weird is that it's splitcamming fine right now with no issues.

For example:
Using AW's JustCamIt program/the www.videochat.tv website version (I use this version now, since the downloaded JCI software version wasn't letting me do cam-to-cam, for some reason), under the 'MyCam' area I have my settings at:
Device: ManyCam Video Source
Encoder size: 640 x 480
Frame rate: 30 FPS (frames per second)
Quality: High
On the ManyCam software, click the 'Video' tab, then go to where it says 'Image Settings'. There's a tab that lets you choose No force size, or 160x120, or other sizes higher than that. I have it set at 640 x 480. Then next to that is a box that lets you choose either 5 fps, 10 fps, 15 fps, 20 fps, 25 fps, or 30 fps. Mine is set at 30 fps (frames per second).

Re: ManyCam & Lagging + Degrading Picture Quality
Bumping this thread because I am having the same issue with ManyCam. Any updated options of what to use? I will try VerySoft tonight but wanted to see if there was anything else.

Re: ManyCam & Lagging + Degrading Picture Quality
I had issues installing the various software mentioned above. I tried the free version of ManyCam and it kind of froze my computer the minute i activated the second stream. I don't have the best and newest computer so I can't expect miracles. I tried verysoft and that one seems to work for me right now, but again, not more than 2 sites at once due to hardware limitation. My picture seems to move ok and nobody has complained of crappy stream. The only problem I have with verysoft is that my image freezes sometimes after I've been live 1-2 hours, and the only way to get it streaming and working again is to restart the computer.
