Hi Bill,
thank you for your report. Hope this helps:
#1. I have two network cards in my computer at home.
Under the options tab in the "Server ip:" box it has the ip for the wrong network card. They are on different subnets and I cant get to your software from the outside world.. The box is grey and wont let me change the value.
The IP shown is just the one the system gets by its name:
Dim objIPAddress As New IPAddress(Dns.GetHostByName(Dns.GetHostName).AddressList(0).Address)
Dim strIPAddress As String = objIPAddress.ToString
LogiSphere should be listening on all interfaces. To verify, please get
TcpView from sysinternals.com
and see what ports are open on which interfaces.
Let me know if you see it's just listening on the primary interface, please.
#2. It may be related to number 1 but I'm not sure.. On this same machine when I click the x to shut down Logisphere, the app dissappears but is still in the task list. upon started the app again it gives error about camera not being ready.. could this have something to do with the minimise to tray stuff thats missing?
Whenever the camera seems blocked, another app is using it. This might be a dead thread of LogiSphere lingering around. Please run LogiSphere with the Debug.lnk file included in the distribution, try to reproduce the problem and send me the zipped debug.txt file.
#3. It still seems to be timing out early. If I switch my web browser to the back ground and come back in a minute I seem to have to refresh the page to get things going again..
You have to tell me which page you're referring to - there are many of them by now.
Does not sound bad to me tough - running quite a few webcams, I don't like people eating up my bandwidth with streams they're not even looking at...
