We developed RTSP support with the Amcrest IP2M-841B ProHD 1080P camera, including PTZ support. It is odd that the same functionality doesn't appear to work for the IP3M-941 that you are using, as it should be standard. I am assuming that Amcrest has not been consistent with their interface, unfortunately.
As for the talkback functionality, yes, the audio does go back to the computer running the iCamSource Pro. We do not yet support talkback audio going back to the IP camera at this time.
Our iCam application is meant to allow users to view their computer webcam remotely from their mobile device, as a sort of low-cost alternative to a security system. It is not meant to turn a mobile device into the equivalent of a USB webcam to connect to a computer.
What is % CPU usage of the iCamSource Pro when running, in the Task Manager? Are you connecting to your cameras using a JPEG or MJPEG URL? Do you know if you can reduce the frame rate within your IP camera settings, and if so, what is the current setting? Reducing frame rates can reduce the amount of work that the iCamSource Pro has to handle on your computer, as it is also doing video encoding and recording.
Did something change with your local network, perhaps a new router or modem?
Are you seeing the Source Connection Error even when attempting to connect from the same local WiFi network? Have you tried rebooting your computer and router?
How many cameras are you using with the iCamSource Pro? Was the iCamSource more stable than the iCamSource Pro? (I am assuming that you are not attempting to run both applications at the same time?)
Yes, you can use the iCamSource Mobile to stream to another mobile device running iCam: "Stream live audio and video from your iOS device's microphone and camera to another mobile device running iCam over WiFi and EDGE/3G/4G/LTE."
This from your website: "Remotely monitor multiple live video and audio webcam feeds from your iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or Android device over WiFi and EDGE/3G/4G/LTE." "Stream live audio and video from your iOS device's microphone and camera to another mobile device running iCam over WiFi and EDGE/3G/4G/LTE."

It sounds like you are wanting to use your phone as a webcam connected to your computer with iCam Pro?

I've bought and downloaded the phone app and desktop app it's working, but all I am seeing is my webcam {inbuilt isight cam} mirrored on my phone, I want to use my phone as a mobile webcam and use it as the main camera on Zoom, Skype, is this possible and if so how?... thanks, Alex
