I have seen alot of posts about using cameras with HSTouch and most seem to just use an image box with a URL address and then setting "Is Video" to true, while this worked fair but slow and always seemed to bog my Homeseer server down. It also would not stop streaming as I could go to my camera server and still see the connection to homeseer streaming pics even if that page was closed on my Iphone, plus 1 to 3 frames per second was just sad. I now use a web page for each camera or groups of cameras with them on my camera server, and create a text box with the address to that server and the "Is HTML" set to true. By streaming straight from the camera server in a web page instead of routing them through the Homeseer server and then on to HSTouch my Homeseer server never sees a hit from the video and I can get some good frame rates with no lag. I have used WebcamXP and is very easy to create the web pages for each camera as the software will build each page for you (cut and paste), I now use BlueIris and really like it much better.
If anyone is setup like this or better I would love to hear about it, there seems to be some confusion for alot of users needing video support and and number of differant ways to do it. Please chime in with some thoughts!
