I'm looking for a QR code reader that doesn't utilize iSight but instead, allows me to take a screenshot of a portion of the screen which it will then scan for and detect the QR code. I'm having trouble finding one because most QR code readers for mac that I can see uses the iSight which is not what I am after.
