Multiple WiFi Cameras - One computer
« on: November 07, 2009, 02:57:46 AM »
I have two wifi cameras that work fine independent of iCam.  If I use the icam source on only one computer, I can't view both at the same time on iCam.  Do I have to have one camera on one iCam source per computer?

Yes, if you want to connect to more than one camera from iCam you need to run more than one iCamSource with each one connecting to a different camera.

How do you launch a second icam source?

@Baddaddy ... mind sharing how you did this?

I'd like to add additional cameras but have only 1 PC I can do this with.

Can you recommend good wifi camera?  Any that are rated for outdoor use?

thanks!
