Unable to see video from Canon Network Camera
« on: July 13, 2009, 06:06:14 PM »
I am trying to install the iCam software on my iMac . I can get the iCam software to see my built-in iSight camera, but not my Canon VB-C50iR network camera.

I have tried several URLS with no luck in the iCam software, but using the following URL in my browser I can see the streaming image:

http://dafuser.dyndns.org:81/-wvhttp-01-/getoneshot?frame_count=no_limit

When I use the same URL in the iCam software, there is no image or error message. Is this camera supported? Am I doing something wrong?

Is it possible for you to send me a screenshot of your iCamSource window so I can verify the settings?  Please send the screenshot to support@skjm.com and refer to this forum thread in your email.

Thanks, but I figured it out after reading the FAQ. I just needed to be using the same userid and passwords for the network camera as I was using for the iSight camera. I can see video from each camera now in the setup screens.

I did a bit more reading of other threads and figured out how to get multiple cameras running and can view them over my iPhone. Everything seems to be working fine.
