Trouble Configuring iPhone and iPad in iCamSource
« on: August 04, 2012, 12:58:02 PM »
I purchased the ipCam app and have followed the directions, however, i have not yet had success.  I first selected the Ethernet / Wi=Fi option then in the Camera MJPEG or JPEG URL box, I put the entire http:// and then the specific device (Iphone or Ipad # and then ended the number sequence with these three different options: 

1.  /
2.  /video
3.  /video.

None of these have worked and have given the following error messages:

1.  Ipad:  "Your network IP camera could not be connected to.  Please make sure that the Camera URL contains the correct network address for your camera."
2.  Iphone:  "401 - Webcam Authorization Failure - Please make sure that the Camera Login and Password are correct and try again."

Can the "Camera Login" and "Camera Pass" be the same for each camera?

What are you supposed to put in the two spaces above the "Better Frame Rate/ Better Image Quality" slide?  I've been putting ipad or iphone and the same password I used for the "Camera Pass" and iCam source programs and then just changed the number drop down to the next number in sequence...  Example:  The iMacs built-in camera is one, the iPhone is 2, and the iPad is 3.

Also, should I be checking the "Auto-Config Router" option?

Thanks,
Mike

Please make sure that the Audio option is set to ON in your ipCam Options. - http://skjm.com/ipcam/support.php

The MJPEG URL that you will want to use is http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/video.mjpg where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the local IP address that you use to connect to ipCam's web interface using your web browser. - http://skjm.com/ipcam/support.php#icam

Hi Mike, how did you figure it out to get your ipCam on your iPhone to work on iCamSource? I get the same 404 url not found message and i'm using the ip thats on the bottom on my iPhone screen when ipCam is active on my phone, that same displayed ip i put in iCamSource under Ethernet/WiFi and selected mjep and enter the same login/pass I used for ipCam app on my phone and its giving me that 404 url not found message, Any tips to resolve this?
