If you can install Dropbox on your work computer and assuming that they don't block the Dropbox connection, the system tray icon will pop up any time a file is uploaded to your Dropbox.  In this case, any time a motion event is captured you will be instantly notified.

Use dropbox.  It will automatically sync motion events to cloud storage (it uses Amazon S3).  They offer 2Gb accounts for free.  They also have a free iphone/ ipod touch app as well.

I see your point.  CPU usage hovers around 25% during idle state when running iCamSource.  I am going to buy a newer computer specifically for this task which should greatly improve stability. 

Thanks for answering whether or not the push notification was possible.

Icamsource crashing (occasionally) is the problem that I have experienced.  I am using an old laptop (1.6 Ghz centrino w/ 1 Gb ram) so that may be adding to the reduced stability.

iCam Support / Feature Request: Notification of Camera Failure

« on: January 03, 2010, 12:42:42 AM »

Is it possible to have push notifications sent when a camera source dies?  When I am away from home I find that my only way to status my cameras is to open up iCam and check.  It would be great if I could get an immediate notification such that I can remotely restart iCamSource or if necessary reboot my machine (I use LogMeInFree).

Thanks!

I also concur that PTZ support for the Logitech Orbit would be killer.  I imagine you could charge for each type of camera as an in app purchase.
