I had to set up a system like this for a client. Basically, the process
needs to work by attaching the web cam to a video board (like the Winnov)
and having software that snags a jpg from the video feed every 20
minutes. Generally speaking, as long as the video board supports Video for
Windo
Try: http://www.webcam32.com/ you can have a live feed using a java applet
that you mandate forced live feed or update intervals, as well as having
timed shots taken and FTP'd to the server for storage. No CF needed.

My experience has been that the software included with the cam will do all
that you mentioned.

Client has decided he wants to have a Web cam (Exterior) looking
over an admittedly super beach next to his hotel. It can get
spectacularly wild.
So far so good, however he wants to update the pic every 20 mins
and have every third one stored so users can see what it was like
on the hour any day
