CyberLink YouCam Modes

CyberLink YouCam has four different modes, stand alone mode, IM mode, split

mode and mirror mode. Some features are only available in certain modes.

• Stand alone mode: when CyberLink YouCam is launched manually from the

start menu, desktop shortcut, or the icon in the system tray, it opens in stand

alone mode. In stand alone mode you can record and upload videos to

YouTube/Facebook, and e-mail and print photos. The video surveillance

feature is only available in this mode.

• IM mode: when you start a webcam video call with a friend on your instant

messaging software (Windows Live Messenger, Skype, Yahoo Messenger, etc.),

CyberLink YouCam launches in the smaller IM (instant messaging) mode.

Shared document viewing is only available in IM mode.

• Split mode: you can share your webcam with more than one webcam

application. To do this, ensure your webcam application capture devices are

using the CyberLink Webcam Splitter (see "Enabling CyberLink YouCam" on

page 3 for more information). Next, ensure the CyberLink YouCam system tray

icon is available, right-click on it, and then select your Capture Device from the

list. Next, set your Capture Resolution and then select Launch Effects Room

to open the effects room. When you select effects (see "Adding and Applying

Effects" on page 11 for more info) they display in any open webcam

applications.

• Mirror mode: you can access this mode via the start menu and the system tray

icon. Mirror mode is designed to act just like a mirror if ever you need one.

Once launched, you can change the video’s resolution, change the mirror’s

frame, or zoom in on a specific portion of the mirror.

Note: to ensure the best mirror image is available, it is recommended that you set the

resolution to the maximum available. Mirror mode works best with webcams that

support high-definition (1280×720) output.

YouCam User Interface

When using both stand alone or IM mode, you can resize the CyberLink YouCam

user interface to suit your requirements.

Simply click and drag in the bottom right corner to resize any CyberLink

YouCam window to fit your preference.
