iCam Pro Support / 10.11.5 -error > connecting but can't find any cameras

« on: May 17, 2016, 05:58:50 AM »

Something went wrong after the 10.11.5 MacOS update.

iCam Pro Source 1.1.1 just stalls on "connecting" to all cameras. Ports open fine.

iCam Pro Support / iOS9 Public Beta 2 broken vid display

« on: July 23, 2015, 02:42:06 PM »

screen display is messed up. Thumbnails start 1/2 down the screen. If you need a screenshot, let me know

Know it is beta but hopefully this helps

iCam Pro Support / Thumbnails in Events

« on: July 07, 2014, 07:04:19 PM »

I realize this is "video" -- though the jpegs with some fps isn't much different -- but the thumbnails on the non-pro version are much more helpful. I can try and scrub through 5 minutes of video but being able to see something specific (when a door opened, for example) in a series of thumbnails is very helpful and is much appreciated in the non-pro version.

Is there a way to add that back in? Screenshots every 2 seconds?

iCam Pro Support / Display Cam Info

« on: June 19, 2014, 07:51:05 AM »

I don't seem to be able to find this option that I have in iCam. Would love to turn the cam names off and get rid of that band at the bottom of the cam screen. Is this functionality going to be put back in?

Thanks

iCam Support / Re: IP Cam / Raspberry PI

« on: September 12, 2013, 04:21:46 PM »

I've been investigating the minimum requirements too. Some of the newer Atom CPUs might suffice for a few cams. I've been itching for a cheap, small form-factor iCam server box. Linux would be great but Windows 7 isn't the total end of the world.

Anyone try any Atom based boxes with iCam?

iCam Support / Re: Is the iCam app functioning properly on latest iOS 7 beta?

« on: September 12, 2013, 04:19:17 PM »

Been looking forward to this. GM is here! 3/4 app starts just quit, as you know. Not the end of the world but a bit of a PIA.

I also found an annoying bug in Apple's messages in GM but that's another story

iCam Support / Re: Bad JPEG engine in firmware?

« on: November 14, 2012, 12:18:09 PM »

emailed Sharx about it. Was hoping you would confirm that as the route to take.

Off Topic: Any way to skip to the end of a motion event sequence? Browsing on my iPhone to the end of a 300+ image sequence for a motion even isn't ideal. A skip to end button might be helpful.

iCam Support / Bad JPEG engine in firmware?

« on: November 14, 2012, 05:51:59 AM »

I've got a script that is relaunching icam when it quits as a stop-gap (you'll see the reference to sleeping 10 seconds before restart).

There are some sites that mention this as an issue with the Foscam 8918W but I'm not running one of those. Thoughts?

iCam Support / Re: iCamSource 2.5 - Latest Stable Release

« on: July 31, 2012, 04:33:54 AM »

Updated to OS 10.8 and to iCam 2.5  - no other system changes

CPU usage on iCam has jumped from ~25% to ~120%+

And periodic crashes

Ideas?

iCam Support / Auto Config Router

« on: March 28, 2012, 05:47:30 AM »

doesn't work anymore. When checked, it either says Connecting... or sometimes connects but only one cam shows.

Without auto-connect, all cams show very quickly and work fine except they might start to double up in the iphone app (two of each show up).

Tried the usual reboots of icam, mac, router, etc

Any help?

iCam Support / Re: Image resolution > 640x480?

« on: January 30, 2012, 06:02:45 AM »

The resolution restriction is only on Edge/3G, right?

There shouldn't be a resolution restriction over WiFi.

It's comical how many times I have tried to pinch to zoom when viewing a cam on iCam...

yup. Bummer. The trend in cams is certainly to h.264 so I hope we get this sooner than later.
