iCam supports Built-In, FireWire or USB Webcams and DV Cameras as well as select MJPEG-compatible Network IP Cameras.

According to your camera's specifications it does not output MJPEG formatted data, so it is not compatible with iCamSource.

We discuss the recommended cameras on our forum at: http://skjm.com/forum/index.php?topic=908.0 (http://skjm.com/forum/index.php?topic=908.0)

Arrr thanks, thought it was too good to be true, I assumed that as it was a USB camera it might work

Actually, that looks like a standard USB webcam, although it has night-vision capabilities, which isn't something that we have really seen before.

If it acts just like a regular USB webcam and is compatible with your computer then it *should* also work with iCam and the iCamSource.

Hi Puffin

Just wandering if you got this cam to work? And if the night vision part works well?

Cheers
