logs sent,
i just want to ask you if icamsource saves others files in some directory.. or in the registry..

if i uninstall it and delete all the files in the main directory it remember the desktop position, actually on my secondary monitor, and the webcamlist, password and preferencies, how to default them all?

 i want to open it in the primary monitor and redo the list, etc.

thanks

sure I deleted all files, and I checked the versions, tonight maybe I retry.

EDIT: I try now, Im using 243: In the mosaic view I see a good fps rate only in one of the 2 cams actually connected,  but if I zoom in they both goes at 1fps.

isnt it better to continue this discussion in a private channel? PM or skype?

Both versions 243 and 244 have the same issue of the 2.5.

Does both version 2.5 (the latest version from the web site) and the logging version (2.4.3a) only refresh at about 1 frame per second when you are zoomed in on a camera? If so, does the 2.4.3b version have a much higher frame rate when zoomed in? (I believe that was the case.)

The logging version should help track down this frame rate issue, but the log files you have sent so far do not show any unknown error codes when attempting to send data for some reason. Does 2.5 only show a slow frame rate when zoomed in if audio is turned off on all cameras? What if you only turn off audio in iCam on your phone and still choose the audio input in the iCamSources?

The 1fps refresh issue is related to the v2.5 only and AUDIO(icamsouces and iphone) ON or OFF seems do not affect on that.
Both the Beta and Alpha versions have NOT that behavior.
The Beta version seems it works generally better than Alpha.

ok, I'll do it.
I'm testing it right now with 3 webcameras and it works great.

The only 2 little problems are that it often crash with that lame.dll error, if I enable audio,
audio is important as video and I want to use it.


the other problem is that some time appear a window in icam that say something like "connection error" but i press ok and the app continue to work. I'll report the exact text.

EDIT: the error is:
"Source Connection Eroor - One or more of the icamsoursec returned by the icam broker server could not be connected to."

EDIT: it is just crashed with this file error "MSVCR90.dll"

I'll send you log files soon.
bye

I am not agree, when  I look at the mosaic view and the apps decide to works, I have 140KB/s upload and realtime fast like mirror images, when I tap one and it expand to fullscreen, the bandwith drops at a poor 30kb/s that anyway it could be enough for a decent framerate, but it isn't, in this case.

Sometimes I have 20kb/s unstable upload and images lag evertimes.
Sometimes 10kb/s, Sometimes, 1 of 2 are laggy. it's a kind of lottery.

All other softwares are transmitting images at 30fps fullscreen, but I'm sure ur app can do it too,
I saw icam worked well like I want one time after an update, maybe you did change something in a recent update..

you want to change my mind, I dont change idea, there's something wrong.
the dog images in the spot is too short to see it well but it is very poor, and coul be much better

I show you network behavior, I show you an error relating lame.dll.
I can send you what you want, but wish you help me?
Do you call this an aid?

I know my english sucks and explain someone networks/fps troubles is not easy, what can I do? Cant you send me some icamsource debug versions?


this screenshot is taken one of the very few times icamsource works semi-good.
the first upload graph is 1 webcam unstable and laggy.
then I start after restarting icamsource.
the goods are mosaic - 1 webcam, the bads are fullscreen

imho icam works good, the problem is in icamsource.
and always imho also at 30kb/s images are smooth at 640x480.

the images seems limited to 1fps at 30kb/s: non sense

I'm going to play russian roulette alone with six bullets. see you

"5 fps = quick image refresh"...
ok I just realized we have a different conception of smooth images.

Dude, I'm talking about I want to see me like I was look myself into a mirror.
by using the hightest bandwith available.

BTW, even if it was at 30fps that do not demonstrate anything.

There's something wrong, I don't know where, if in the app or in my system,
i say you only what i'm having, i'm not inventing anything.
I just tried all I can try.


a crash occured just now while typing this post

I think my network works correctly.
you continue to presume the issue is in my system but if it is so, why this behavior when i double tap a preview to fullscreen?

no problems with 3 or 4 webcams connected at the same time with any other software. I have a modern pc.
power issues? i dont think so, maybe if you use an hub..

icamsource and icam both are lagging with 1 or 2 cams too.
and yes, with multiple instances too. and on differents pcs.

maybe is my router that is incompatible, a netgear dgn3500...

Well.. I'm abandoning this app, it is clear as daylight that icamsource and probably also icam, should be rewritten, modified radically. So when you decide to do something about the lag, crashes, low usage of bandwidth, the fps and high consumption of CPU, send me an email. Meanwhile enjoy my money.
