Feature: Select a mic to use with IP cam
« on: January 26, 2012, 11:53:07 AM »
Hello.  I think icam is awesome.  I use it with a mix of web and IP cams. 

I would like to be able to select any audio source, similar to setup of a web cam source, to broadcast with an IP camera source. 

For example I have two cameras in the same the same room, one web and one IP.  I would like to be able to hear the web cam audio while viewing the IP cam video. 

Either that or even,better would be support for the audio stream that my IP camera has available.  I use the dlink DCS-932L. 

Thanks!

Thank you for your post.

Currently, the only wireless camera that iCam has audio support (version 2.2.2) for are certain models of Airlink cameras.  All other wireless cameras, that output MJPEG or JPEG formatted data over HTTP, have video-only support in iCamSource (no audio). Audio support for the Airlink models is discussed here: http://skjm.com/forum/index.php?topic=1416.0

I understand that adding support for the IP camera audio is a large task... 

How about my suggestion to allow using a system microphone for IP cameras, the same as when setting up a webcam camera?

Something like this...


Thanks, Jason

I second that, if it's possible.

That is not a feature that has been requested in the past but we will add it to our list of potential features to implement in the future.
