i searched on google and found http://videocapture.sourceforge.net/ before i posted here. videocapture has no docs and doesn't provide additional options like motion detection nor any info on possibility of motion detection or howto implement (use of minimal system resources).
i posted here to find out if anybody knows a better way to capture video.
