Is the ecamm BT-1 wireless bluetooth webcam supported?
« on: April 01, 2013, 05:07:44 PM »
For some reason my iMac is not connecting to the BT1 via bluetooth.  So it is not showing on the cameras list in icam preferences.  Has anyone gotten this to work?

I looked at the specs for the BT1, and it doesn't appear to support mjpeg or jpeg feeds...only H.264. iCam is not yet compatible with H.264, and may never be. I've asked about it, as have other iCam users, and I think the main concern is the licensing costs associated with H.264/MPEG4.

I think that that camera should be seen as a regular webcam to your Mac. I think that people have used it with the iCamSource in the past, but as a regular webcam and not an IP camera.
