Multiple logins on iCam iOS
« on: July 18, 2012, 02:10:35 AM »
I have some cameras in my house and some cameras outside. I want to use all cameras for me and share the outside cameras with my neighbours.

Any way to do it today or need to wait for multiple login iCam?

A multi-login iCam has been requested in the past and is currently on our list of potential features to implement in the future.

You can try having the outdoor cameras listed twice in the iCamSource (assuming they are network IP cameras) using a different login and password combination that the neighbors would use.

Listing the camera twice 'works', but it will double the wifi use for that camera or Im wrong?

It will, because there will be two connections to the camera. If doubling the WiFi usage to a single camera is a concern, you could drop the frame rate of the camera by a factor of 2.
