icamsource does not stream video - no error
« on: October 04, 2010, 10:03:21 AM »
I have been running icamsource without issue for 5 months.  This past week, it stopped working.  When I Start the camera, there is no error, only that the preview screen goes from grey to white and no streaming to my iphone or the internet.  I was running version 1.4.1.  I have updated to various Beta and released versions with no change.  I have checked and the cameras are functioning.  The system is at a remote location so I can reboot the laptop but cannot physically change anything at this time. I have tried uninstalling, rebooting and re-installing the software with no success.  Where are the preference files kept?  It seems that even after I uninstall and re-install, the preference files are kept.  Are they possibly corrupt?

Specifics:
HP laptop running windows Vista
Two D-Link DCS-920 cameras
icamsource  running at 1.4.2.6 BETA but other versions tried including 2.1.3.
Please let me know.

If you copy the MJPEG URL from iCamSource and paste it into your web browser location bar, does the web browser display the video from your webcam properly?
