iCam Support / Re: Supported Pan-Tilt USB Webcams and Network IP Cameras

Thanks for the advice on auto-zoom. Since your "supported list of PTZ cameras" is for Windows only, I have set up a Vista virtual image (VMware) on my Mac. This has allowed me to install the Logitech drivers, which turned out to be all for Windows, and use the supplied utility to reposition the camera using Windows. This is a lot better for remote monitoring than having it permanently pointing up at the ceiling. I can now use Windows for repositioning the camera, and OS X for running iCamSource to view it remotely.

Has anybody been able to, using a setup like mine, run the Windows version of iCamSource in the virtual image and monitor it? When I try this I can do iCamSource setup within the VM, but but gets confused by the double interface of VM to IS X to router, and I can't view with the iCam app.

I'm a new user and have just set up iCamsource 2.4 (downloaded this afternoon) on a Mac Mini running OS X 10.6 Server. I am connecting successfully with both the iPhone 4S app and the web interface, but the PLZ functions in both these clients are not working even though my camera is the Logitech Orbit AF. So far I have not installed any of the Logitech-supplied drivers. Should I install the Logitech drivers to enable the PTZ functions?

Second question: my iCam screen is divided into four small image squares, with my camera feed occupying just one of them. Is this normal behavior or can I opt for one large image?
