I would like to set it up to capture using various codecs (currently use K-lite mega pack), but mostly quality .mp4 codecs (like Xvid in the .avi container) using 1280x720 @30fps. What webcam capture software do you use, and what codec pack does it work best with? Thanks!

I have come to the conclusion that "FaceBook" should be renamed "FacePalm" 
Re: Got new Webcam, what software to use?
Sorry I only know of one piece of software, and I haven't used it.

According to the site the software can record HD MP4 video.
A quick Google search came back with this.

I'd also check out to see if Logitech has newer/better software up on their website.

I always look for open source software (OSS) first.
