Trouble viewing more than 4 cameras
« on: September 15, 2010, 07:41:20 PM »
The new features for the iPhone app state that you can view up to 12 cameras.  When I run more than four cameras I don't know how to view them.  I only can view the first four.  Any suggestions?

iCam 2.0 should adjust the thumbnail size if you are running more than 4 iCamSources with the same iCam Login and Password.

I would make sure that you are running iCam 2.0 (in the iCam Options screen) and that you are running more than 4 iCamSources (or the latest iCamSource with more than 4 cameras) with the same iCam Login and Password.

The problem happens when I am running iCam on two different Macs.  When I moved all cameras to one Mac it worked fine.  I am running iCam 2.0 and iCamSource 2.1.

Are you using the same iCam Login and Password combination on both iCamSources? Are both Macs on the same local network, connected to the same router?

Yes, I am using the same Login and password on both sources.  Yes, both Macs are on the same network connected to the same router.  I'll have more time to troubleshoot today.

I got it to work.  I don't know what fixed the problem.  I restarted both Macs but that didn't seem to help.  Starting and stopping iCamSource multiple times seemed to fix the problem.  I now have 11 cameras operating.  I'm not sure what the problem was.
