iCam Support / Re: iCamSource 2.1 on Mac - no video

Solved the problem.  The upgraded version seems to loose the name and password values.  Until these are entered, you can't click the start button and see the video preview in the window.  Definitely not intuitive, but of course covered in the FAQ at http://skjm.com/icam/support.php

3. Enter an iCam Login and Password of your choosing (no need to register or create an account), and click the Start button. The iCamSource is now setup and running.

Strange that it didn't keep the login and password from the previous version.  When I downgraded back to the previous version, it came up with the values previously entered, which is why that still worked with no effort.

Oh well, working now. Life is good!

iCam Support / iCamSource 2.1 on Mac - no video

« on: September 16, 2010, 12:26:19 AM »

I've been using iCam successfully for a month or so now.  Got the notice of the 2.1 update for iCamSource today so downloaded and installed. It runs, but doesn't seem to pick up the video feed from the camera.  The camera worked fine up until the 2.1 install.  Uninstalled, rebooted, downloaded and installed 2.1 again and same results.  Uninstalled, downloaded iCamSource 1.4.2.6 again and installed that and it's back to working again.  Checked the Console logs for any errors, but nothing shows up there indicating a problem for iCamSource.  Sticking with the previous version for now.

Mac mini
Mac OS 10.6.4 - completely up to date
Firewire iSight camera
iCamSource 2.1 - no video in the Preferences window, unable to connect from iCam
iCamSource 1.4.2.6 - video works, connection from iCam works
