Webcam32 and MS Agent

Webcam32 now has basic integration with Microsoft Agent.  Microsoft Agent provides the ability to include animated characters in an application as well as speech synthesis.

If Microsoft agent is installed on the machine running Webcam32 and the FTP warning is enabled, Merlin will countdown to the next FTP upload.

In addition to having Webcam32 V4.7.2 beta 2 or better installed, you must also install the Microsoft Agent components if you have not already done so.   Specifically, you must download and install three packages.

  1. Start Webcam32

  2. Open the Warnings dialog

  3. Select MSAgent from the Sound Selections

  4. Select a countdown interval (e.g. 5 seconds)
