Greetings,
I had iCamSource connected to 3 webcams running on my iMac i5 QuadCore, so performance was not an issue. I have an old iBook G4 running some home automation software (Indigo). The iBook needs to be on all the time to run Indigo, so I installed iCamSource using only 1 webcam. It didn't work too well especially when I turned on motion detection. I really didn't expect it would.
Anyway, I am thinking of picking up a used dual core intel Mac - like a MacMini or Macbook - to replace the iBook. My question is how well will iCamSource work managing 3 webcams? Will Core 2 Duo vs. older Core Duo matter? I found someone locally selling an older, 1st gen core duo macbook pro and I am wondering if the core duo performance would be adequate.
Thanks, Ed.
