Hi
Try this program, you get a free trial and if you like it a one off payment.
Only records when motion is detected so you will not waste loads of memory.

Have fun.

You could always try Yawcam from http://www.yawcam.com/
It's free and it works.
It's got motion detection, streaming, scheduled recording and many more features.
With a bit of trickery you can have more than one copy running for more cameras.


If it's stupid and it works, it ain't stupid.
