Dear All

I have a camera set up on a PC and the card works fine via the intellicam
software supplied with the drivers. I am now at a point where I need to
frame grab at preset intervals over say 2 hours (maybe one frame every 2
minutes (with a timestamp would be perfect!)). I am looking for a free
package that may do this. Does anyone have anything to hand or know of a
package that would do this? I have looked at the obvious such as ImageJ but
I am can't find a plug-in for this board type.

Any help appreciated!
