Dear list,

I have tested my webcam with guvcviwe and the cam is running fine.
Now I like to place a tiny viewer on my desktop which simply
sits at the corner of my desktop and whenever I like I can
record the views. Is there any ?

Thanks

Have you tried Cheese? Or is this not small enough? or not what you’re
looking for?

Tried it, can't resize the window small enough to place at a corner.
It always maintain a huge width. But I like the tool, though it doesn't
match with my requirement. I have added it into my tool collection.
