Cameras not showing.
« on: August 28, 2019, 11:27:33 AM »
I have run Ispy for years but unfortunately the PC that was running it has finally died!

I have attempted to set it up on another PC but am having a problem getting the software to recognise the cameras.

The cameras are connected to a Piccolo Pro 2 CCTV capture card.

As a test I downloaded iCatcher (free version) and it recognises the cameras and displays the video streams OK.

In iSpy, when I try to 'Add' a 'Local Device' there is nothing displayed in the 'Video Device' box.

I have tried, 'Open object list' with a saved file from an old backup but although it says it has loaded 'Local Device Camera 0' and 'Local Device Camera 1' there is no picture from either camera.

I have access to all the files from the installation on the PC that died.

I should be grateful for any help.

Many thanks.

John.

We are the developers of the iSpy Cameras mobile app: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/ispy-cameras/id329506639

It sounds like you are using a different, similarly named product.

Oh dear!

Indeed, it would appear so.

Apologies.

Cheers.
