Webcam Setup

[kuen]

I can't create the avi by the right click the live screen more than three pictures. I prompt "No image created!"

I'm not sure the issue will happen before firmware version 1.7.5.9 or not.

I would like a link on my homepage (based on isp), - 123.456.789.12:7777, you press the button and watch my kat, dog – what ever. anonymous access will be ok
The solution from oCe -(http://wl500g.info/showpost.php?p=2148&postcount=17) is nice and ok but based on an “homepage-server” turned on all the time.
Secure access – I mean the only thing open is webcam-feed from port 7777.(right now you must open port 80 for access the webcam asp. from wan.)

the proper url for my webcam-code is http://members.home.nl/oce/bunnycam now. in there you can find the active-x .cab file you'll need and the html-file, which is all you need to make your webcam available for anyone, without login. only thing you'll 'publish' (in the code of the html) is your server/wl500g-ip. little explanation of the mose imortart part of code:

VALUE=127.0.0.1:7777:320:240:12>'

This part, above, has to be (for your own webcam):

IP:WEBCAMPORT:HORIZONTALWEBCAMRESOLUTION:VERTICALW EBCAMRESOLUTION:12

don't ask my why 12 has to be at the end, I have no idea; any other number simply trashes the webcam-image. for any questions feel fry to pm/mail me.

My digital camera (fuji finepix S5000) can I also use as a webcam. On the desktopcomputer there are no problems and it works fine. When I connect it with the WL500g I get "Couldn't connect to server". (also with OV511 and PWC). (firmware 1.7.5.6).

Is it possible to connect the fuji to the wl 500g?

i've not yet seen any digicam capable of doing this at the wl500g

allthough it is capable.. but has no driver to do it..


you would have to compile it on your own if you really want this.

I have configured my Logitech 4000 Pro webcam to connect my WL-500g for more than 2 weeks and worked very fine (with firmware 1.7.5.6). However, suddenly it didn't work though I haven't made any change of router settings. I have tried to (1) connect remotely and locally through 3 different PCs, (2) restored to Factory Default by clicking the option in web config as well as (3) pressing the button at the back of the router, but the problem was still found.

Details of the Problem: When I connected to my webcam remotely by pressing the "Preview" in "Image Size" row within the web config, I got the error message "couldn't create socket" within a "ASUS NetCam" message window. After clicked this message window, another error message "can't connect to server" appeared also within a "ASUS NetCam" message window. Then the error message of the IE6 would appear and the browser closed.

But when I connected to my webcam remotely by pressing the "Preview" in "Remote Control Mode" row with "192.168.1.1" defined for Remote Site 1, it worked FINE.

Although I upgraded the firmware to 1.7.5.9, the problem was still existed.

Comment: I am facing a mirrored image but maybe that's just a camera setting that I need to change on the PC

Does anyone have a sollution for this mirrored image????
I have the same problem!

Also the image stops getting updates after 10 seconds. (with new asus firmware)

From the PWC Driver F.A.Q:

My image is mirrored

This seems to happen with the PCVC730 and the Logitech cam; I have seen it myself, and it has been reported a number of times. Unfortunately I don't have a solution, and even the folks at Philips aren't sure what the problem is...

Of course that doesn't help you a lot, but at least you know you're not alone :-)

There have been a number of requests to make a 'mirror' option for the module. That is certainly possible, but that would require modifications to the PWCX module as well, including a new major number. Eventually, it will happen, no worries

Look arround Here, there was somewhere a Tool on the HP to tweak more special internal settings of the cam, i think also some which get stored permanently. Maybe you write to the Autor and post him that your cam Chipset has the same problems ...
