VB WEBCAM capture Record

I have got an app that shows a webcam live image and records it to a file format but it takes up too much space

about 100mb /20sec , can any one help in getting this down ?

Also how would i set it to only record on motion?
And how would i stream the live video over a lan?


Thanks

you will have to somehow compress the video to get it down
but with the motion detection try here:
