More than 4 cameras and multiple iCam Logins?

[yourmap]

My iPad supports up to 16 cameras with 1 iCam login.  However, my Android phone supports only 4 cameras with the same iCam Login.  The 4 cameras displayed on the Android seem to be randomly selected from the 9 I have defined in iCamSource.  The 4 randomly selected cameras are not the specific ones I want displayed.

How can I display a specific 4 cameras on the Android, and all 9 cameras on the iPad?

Do I need to setup up multiple iCam Login ids?  If yes, how do I do this?

Also, I'm using Win-7 64bit for iCamSource.

iCam for Android does currently only support 4 cameras. It will support more than 4 cameras in a future update.

How many cameras & computers are you currently using to connect to 9 cameras, and what type of cameras (network IP or USB) are you using?

Is there a time-frame (days, weeks, months) on the future upgrade to support more than 4 cameras on Android?  If its days or weeks, I can wait.

Right now, I'm using 1 Win-7 PC with iCamsource

9 IP Camera sources
   1 Dlink  mjpeg on Local Network
   8 http:  jpg  on Internet

I need to see the Dlink on the Android.  I can get by with random on the other 3 cameras displayed.

Different cameras in an iCamSource can have different iCam Login and Password combinations ... If you add the D-Link a second time with a different login and password that the Android uses you will be able to connect to it separately.

I will give it a try.  Thanks.

Different iCam Logins did not work:  This is what I tried:

Win-7 PC with iCamsource:
Existing:
Camera Dlink, Ethernet url= http://192.168.1.71/video.cgi , iCam Login: msperlin, Password: ........
8 other Enet Cameras with iCam Login=msperlin

Added:
Camera #10  Dlink2, Ethernet url= http://192.168.1.71/video.cgi , iCam Login: csperlin, Password: ........

Stopped iCamSource, re-booted Win-7 PC, Started iCamSource, both cameras (same) appear to work in iCamSource.  Verified iCam logins are different.

On iPad:
Started iCam with iCamlogin=msperlin  Both Dlink and Dlink2 show up along with 8 others on iPad.

Stopped iCam, then restarted with iCamlogin=csperlin -  Message that there are "no sources found"

I tried different iCam Logins for Camera Dlink2, including just clearing out, with same results.

Never tried on Android, as it didn't seem to work right on iPad.

 

Help please.

There may be an issue in the iCamSource if that doesn't work for you, because it should.

We'll try and replicate the issue, and if there is a bug, we'll try and track down the issue and release a new version within the next day or two.

UPDATE - We have been able to replicate the issue, and have finally tracked down the root cause of the problem. We hope to have a new version out tomorrow that fixes it.

Ok, here is version 2.2.2 of the iCamSource which should fix your different iCam Login / Password combination issue: http://skjm.com/icam/iCamSetup2.2.2.exe

Please let me know how it goes.

Thanks!

I am having a similar issue on the Mac side. I have a Mac Mini Server running iCamsource with five Axis IP cameras connected. I can view them from with my iPhone but would like to be able to view two or three of the cameras on a different iphone. I tied setting up one of the existing cameras a second time with a different login and password. I am able to get all of the cameras to come up on the iphone including the extra one I set up but I am unable to get just the one to come up...

Hi Stefan,
The 2.2.2 for Win-7 works with multiple cameras and logins.  I can now see the 4 cameras that I want on the Android.  Thank you for the software fix so quickly.  Great support.
