WeirsCAM News - New Feature!

[webmaster]

I've just added a time-lapse feature to the WeirsCAM. It isn't integrated into the site yet but here's a preview. Note that you can adjust the time frame and speed at the bottom of the viewer:

Our new time-lapse feature is so popular that we exceeded our daily quota yesterday. I'm trying to work that out now. If you see a ""Due to overwhelming demand this camera is paused" message please try again later.

Don -

You should really consider hosting those images and streams on a dedicated server. You can also look at programs like VLC that can re-broadcast and image stream, so that a single stream out of the camera could be fed to multiple viewers without imposing more load on the cable modem or connection to the camera. PM me if you need/want more info.

You should really consider hosting those images and streams on a dedicated server.I'm looking into that and other options. To do this right I need a camera that supports H.264 streaming. The first step will be upgrading the camera, which is in the works.

H.264 is good from a bandwidth perspective, but you can do it with an MJPEG or MP4 streaming camera as well.

Is the camera you have now firmware upgradable to h.264?

Thanks but I've got it under control.
