About My Webcam Video Downloader
People searching for a way to record my webcam usually mean their own laptop camera. This is not that tool. It is a mywebcam.com video downloader, made for viewers of the live cam site at that address who want to keep public shows broadcast by its performers. If you watch rooms on mywebcam.com and wish you could replay one, you are in the right place.
When you open a room that is live and public, the extension adds a Download button to the site's video player; click it and choose a quality to begin. Prefer working from the toolbar? Its popup names the room, offers a menu of the qualities being broadcast, and gives you Start, Stop and a running timer. A right-click anywhere on the page reveals a third option, Download My Webcam Stream. Recording continues until you press Stop in the popup, click the X on the progress panel, or the performer ends the show.
Your browser builds the recording into an MP4 file, H.264 video together with AAC audio, entirely on your computer, so the show never travels to SERP servers. The file is named after the performer's room and saved in a MYWEBCAM folder inside Downloads, and a desktop notification tells you when it is ready. Quality is whatever you pick from the room's options, capped by what the stream offers.
Use it on Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, Whale or Yandex under Windows, macOS or Linux. You can test it with 3 free recordings by signing in with an email, without a card, and continue for $17 a month, cancelling whenever you like. It only records public shows that are live on mywebcam.com, starting when you press Start, and the room's tab has to stay open meanwhile.
