iCam Support / Re: IPod Touch as iCamSource

« on: February 19, 2012, 02:24:11 PM »

SKJM also sells an app called IPcam, which turns your iPhone (and possibly iTouch?) into an IP camera. You would still need a camera running icamsource...it will "fetch" the image stream from the iPhone-turned-IP cam and allow iCam on a different iPhone to view that feed. iCam is compatible with a few IP cameras that have the PTZ option...something to consider if you think you might need to re-aim the camera remotely.

Thanks for the information.
Let me give you my set up.  Trying to set up my own babymonitor.  Which I think a lot of people are doing here.

I have :
iPod touch
iPad
iPhone 4S
Win7 pc with web cam

My goal was to rig my iPod Touch to the crib and stream the video. 
From what you are saying, the IPcam app can turn my iPod Touch into the stream source, but I would still need my pc + webcam set up to fetch that data (with iCamSource)...which would then stream to my other devices. 

Do I have that correct?

Thank you for the response btw

iCam Support / IPod Touch as iCamSource

I am trying to use this software as a baby monitor but interested in expanding from there into a home security outfit if it works well.

I am reading that the iCamSource is needed in order to stream the video out.  However, I see no mention of being able to use the mobile devices as the source for the streams? For instance, could I rig an iPod Touch up to the crib, stream video from there, and receive on my other mobile devices?

Thank you for any information. I am ready to buy the app, I just need to know if that will work. Haven't found my answer yet.

Thank you
