Re: Webcam links
Here's my webcam, it looks out over Langstone Harbour, Hayling Island, and out over the English Channel if the viz is good enough.

Re: Webcam links
I wish I had the bandwidth to do a streaming cam, but being stuck on 512k upload, thats going to be a LONG time happening!
In the meantime, here is my less glamourous static shots

Re: Webcam links
Hi Keith, I used to live in Farlington many many years ago - on the slopes of Portsdown Hill - and we looked out over Langstone Harbour, Hayling Island, Portsea Island and the Isle of Wight. Used to watch the Queen Elizabeth and Queen Mary liners in The Solent. Now I have a totally different type of view, over the hills of Devon.

Re: Webcam links
512k is enough to stream video... it'll just update a bit jerkily, that's all. My camera used to go over a 384k upload ADSL line for many years with satisfactory results. It did a few frames a second I guess. Not ideal, but watchable.robynfali wrote:I wish I had the bandwidth to do a streaming cam, but being stuck on 512k upload, thats going to be a LONG time happening!
I am hugely grateful for the lovely upload speed that Virgin Cable allows me though... and it's cheaper than I used to pay for the ADSL line, too.
cheerio,
Keith.

Re: Webcam links
Yeah I know mate, its not just that, even with it being jerky, it would KILL the rest of my browsing etc, I dont think we will ever get cable up here, HOPEFULLY though, when they do upgrade the speeds here, i might do it, as we are directly connected to the exchange, no touring the streets or anything, so I have been told WHEN it does upgrade, we will get FTTH rather than FTTC

Re: Webcam links
I forget the name of the firm now but they installed cable throughout Honiton and the surrounding area up to 5 or 6 miles out, including the road outside here. There is cable with a box on the pole right outside our property but the company went bust and were supposed to be taken over by one of the "big boys" but nothing has happened. Must be over 10 years since!! So we're stuck with just over 2Gb/s download and 300K upload ADSL speeds from the local telephone exchange.

Re: Webcam links

Here is a "rough" go anyway, not complete yet because the sun hasnt totally set here! we have a boot sale each tuesday opposite the house, so quite a bit of activtity on the camera

That looks really good! See what you mean about it throwing a few night ones in but overall it seems good!robynfali wrote:pretty good, i am actually doing a load of pictures today for that very reason, so just threw them through this, did have an anomoly tho, it shoved a couple of the earlier "night" pictures into the day ones.

Re: Webcam links
Yeah, i found the problem with the anomoly too, organise by name, not creation time, because, if like me, cumulus/yawcam is on a different computer, if your transferring the pics bit by bit, you bugger up the creation times. So if you organise it by filename (left default by yawcam etc) then it all throws together well, i am just waiting for the last few shots now then i will do it again properly!

Re: Webcam links

Sadly, i have just noticed a minor "blip", the camera moved around 5pm (i think it was something to do with my dog, sitting on the windowsill next to it!

Re: Webcam links
No difference in quality, just the ability to add credits/ text with movie maker I guess.
So, for a free program, this was a great little find indeed, VERY simple to use (more simple than movie maker thats for sure)
Oh, my settings, whilst using that program, the movie is just over a minute long, and i had one shot every 4 minutes, with a frame rate of 3 per second
