iCam Support / iCam feature request - webcam config button
« on: September 02, 2009, 11:29:40 AM »
Awesome app. I'm using iCam to remotely watch a baby monitor. When the LCD screen on my baby monitor died last month, instead of throwing the whole thing out, I bought a cheapo analog-to-USB audio/video interface that the baby monitor receiver plugs into via RCA cables. The interface shows up as a source for iCam and works well. I use my iPhone to watch the baby monitor when I'm home, at work, out to dinner, etc - awesome!
The problem is that whenever I have to reboot the PC, the driver for the video interface resets the video format to PAL which garbles the video. What I would like is quick access to the config panel for the 'webcam' driver. Right now I have to open up a random video capture program I happen to have and use its webcam config button to get to the driver settings and update to NTSC. If you could add a button to get to that config within the iCam server software, that would be very helpful.
Also, I've seen others requesting an audio only option so I wanted to throw my vote in for that too.
thanks for a really great app!
