Supported Pan-Tilt USB Webcams and Network IP Cameras

[Kiwicamfan]

Has anyone managed to get a Foscam FI9820W working with pan/tilt? Just bought one for the office after telling everyone how wonderful iCam is, now pan tilt is not working!

The video stream is working with http://192.168.1.x/tmpfs/auto.jpg

To add to the above - is this because this cam is H. 264 maybe?

iCam supports Built-In, FireWire or USB Webcams and DV Cameras as well as select MJPEG-compatible Network IP Cameras.

We discuss the supported Pan/Tilt cameras on our forum at: http://skjm.com/forum/index.php?topic=3162.0

The Foscam URL that we support for Pan-Tilt is http://x.x.x.x/video.cgi

Does that URL work with your camera?

Is Icam compatible with the Foscam 890x series?

I tested the generic Foscam 890x series (a ethernet only Wanscam) with the free server, as well as my old USB MS Lifecam VX-3000 and both worked.

We are glad you got it working!

If you have any other issues or questions, please let us know.

I'm trying to use a FOSCAM Wireless IP Camera but I'm unable to make the icam recognize it via IP.  Am I doing something wrong?  I tried the regular IP with the port number and also the WAN IP with the port number but to no avail.  Any other suggestion would be appreciated, thanks!

Hi thought I was just drop a note to show what I have working with icam
 I bought the following all weather ip camera from eBay

ebay.co.uk/itm/Wireless-WIFI-IP-Camera-IR-Network-Nightvision-Outdoor-Waterproof-UK-/150969795723?pt=UK_CCTV&hash=item232680448b

£40

Works a treat and easy to setup treat like a foscam and use the mjpeg URL

As mentioned I also took an old security camera system and patched it together to work on my pc and icam

The security camera was a friedlanD response I had given to me as a freebie

amazon.co.uk/Response-Friedland-CWD3-Wireless-Monitor/dp/B007RLXTSA/ref=sr_1_38?s=diy&ie=UTF8&qid=1360870707&sr=1-38

To make it work I then bought a USB video capture device sold as a device to take old vhs cam corders tapes to pc. this cost on eBay about £20

Installed the capture driver supplied
Installed the capture software supplied with serial number!? (Important it won't work unless you install this, you don't have to leave it running)
Open icam and select the new capture source via a new camera

However please note that the night vision on this USB old security camera bodge is pretty bad. Day time it's good

Hi,

Would you be able to include Pan/Tilt control for Tenvis camera? Specifically, Model JPT3815W 


Thanks in advance

[SKJM Support]

Pan/Tilt support for Tenvis has been requested in the past and is currently on our list of potential features to implement in the future.

My Foscam IP cameras are working properly, but, how do I configure the default position of the cameras to set at a predetermined position?  Right now the cameras continually reset at random times and point to the ceiling.

[SKJM Support]

We do not have any control over where the cameras point after it resets. The camera may have a setting on it's configuration page, but you will need to contact the camera manufacturer for more information.
