sofware for webcam

I have bought myself a webcam: aGent V5 HD Webcam Specifications

I use it to follow the development of a wasp nest and society in a nest box.
I am searching for software that I can use to record when I am not behind my pc. Something that can capture or record every minute a photo as an example. Or every 5 minutes 20 second footage. Any recommendations?

A more simple question could be: what software could I use to record footage in stead of the software that came with the webcam? That software is terrible and causes crashed all the time. Nobody?

Hi Rob...............

A quick Google for "software video frame grabbers" turned up these in very short order:

Frame grabber Free Download

Video2Photo 1.0 - Software frame grabber which can capture individual frames from a video source. - SharewarePlaza

That first one triggered my "site safe" klaxens, so take care.

Is this the sort of thing you need?

PS: Hmm, that's novel, couldn't do that again if I tried, what did I hit?

Nive software, thanks.
But I need something more sophisticated. I should be able to tell the software to take pictures at certain time intervals. In addition, it would be convenient if the software could also capture the videostream itself.
It doesn't have to be necessarily FREE.
