I use vlc command line.
I need to capture continually my personal profile video on the PC screen with my webcam, and grab a single image, probably by a hot key or by cursore click, saving it to a file.
Is it possible and how?

Thanks vlc_help,
but I'm looking for a command line solution.
In my environment I need to display continuously webcam video and when needed by user, to grab a single picture by some hotkey or cursore.
Can you farther help please?

Then you have to use rc, telnet or similar interface and use e.g. netcat to send then take snapshot command.
