So you’ve got a web-cam and you’d love to create a daily time-lapse video.  With Yoics, it couldn’t be easier.

If you haven’t already done so, download and install the latest version of Yoics for Windows.

You can either have the wizard setup your camera for you, or you can manually configure it by selecting Web/IP Cam:

Time-lapse

The Time-lapse setting allows you to create a daily video of your camera’s view, independent of events.   Images are captured every-minute then assembled into a video clip at the end of the day.

1. Click to enable time-lapse creation.
2. Click and adjust the time settings if you want to only create a time-lapse during a particular time of the day.

Like other video, the daily time-lapse will be uploaded to YouTube and a notification will be sent out (Twitter, email) if you’ve setup Yoics that way.

Instantly publish to YouTube

Yoics allows you to automatically publish your captured events on YouTube.   Simply enter in your YouTube credentials and video clips will be uploaded based on the criteria that you’ve selected.

1. Enable YouTube publishing
2. Only publish your daily summary (default)
3. Store motion events in your private YouTube (requires Yoics Pro)

• Auto Tweet when new videos are uploaded (all events or just a daily time-lapse summary)
• View the your webcam live from any browser, even your iPhone

So what are you waiting for, download Yoics now, it’s free!  If you’ve already installed the latest version of Yoics, you can see the advanced configuration on how to Tweet your webcam here.

Instant surveillance

If you have a webcam, with Yoics you now have a full fledged internet surveillance system, with both local and Internet on-line storage.

• User configurable motion detection window
• Daily time-lapse summary of daily events
• Auto YouTube publishing (requires YouTube account)
• Auto notification (email and Twitter)

Auto Tweet

Twitter has transformed the way that people communicate.  With Yoics, each time your webcam detects an event, you can have an auto-tweet sent out and if you’ve setup your system to automatically upload the video to your YouTube account, that link will be auto embedded.

Auto YouTube

In addition to capturing all motion events, Yoics will automatically generate a time-lapse summary of your days events.  And since it’s up on YouTube, you can embed it anywhere and even add an audio soundtrack if you’d like.

Live view

Since your webcam is now Yoics enabled, you can also view it live anytime, securly and privately from any browser even from your iPhone.
