Howdy - Is your camera a Firewire webcam (like an iSight) or a DV camera with a Firewire cable?

Does the CPU usage change if you close the iCamSource window?

It's a firewire video card (canopus ADVC55) and I allways dissable the iCamSource window, since it's a server

On a Mac G5 2x2GHz the CPU usage is too high.
25-50% idle, 50% when iPhone connected.
(Running OS X 10.5.7)

Can anyone else on a PPC machine confirm this high CPU usage?

I'we had the same problem on the newest Mac mini with 4GB installed... (I use a Firewire Camera)
Actually the iCam server CPU usage is steady 65% wich is kinda anoying, since I'd like to use my server for other stuff than just monitoring my hallway...
The problem exist both en OSX 10.5 & 10.6 - Resetting PRAM or Clean install of OSX makes no difference.
I hope you fix it soon... so I won't regret buying the icam software for my iphone.
It would also be nice if you implement a recording function
