I have installed 4 hikvision cameras (which I use as a webcam) in a network but I can't open incoming ports. I can only use outgoing ports. So Abelcam can't reach the cameras. What solution do you suggest? Thank you very much.https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=52322019-04-30 06:24:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=5228Hi, I just bought a license for AbelCam. I enter the license and save the configuration but when I restart AbelCam there is no license shown in the license area and the about screen shows trial mode. What do I need to do to fix.https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=52282018-06-13 19:48:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=5227I'm a newbie and need help figuring out how to get an IP camera set up. The camera is a Wansview W3. I have it working fine through the camera's app and web interface but I'm baffled by what I need to do so Abelcam can see it. I have settings for: - IP - Port - WiFi - UPNP - DDNS - RTSP - Onvif - FTP - SMTP I recognize some of these but I'm not going to just start guessing. Any suggestions on what I need to do would be most welcome. https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=52272017-12-03 22:13:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=5225New features in AbelCam 4.4.3 Many of the technologies used for the AbelCam web pages installed with the software have changed lot Javascript has become more powerful Java is almost dead - only 20% of the visitors on abelcam.com have it installed Silverlight looked promising years ago, now it's not even supported by Microsofts Edge browser AbelCam 4.4.3 is the answer to these changes. If you're installing for the first time, you will have the new set of web pages as default. If you're upgrading, you will need to change your data folder to point to the new pages.

Nachdem ich eine Webcamera (Microsoft HD-3000) erfolgreich installieren konnte, gelingt mir das bei der zweiten (und den weiteren) nicht. Fehlermeldung: Lizenz reicht nur für 1 Webcamera. Was mache ich wohl falsch? Ich möchte die Webcameras nicht über das Internet bzw. LAN zu anderen PC#s senden, sondern nur auf meinem Modellbahn-PC (nach Anwahl) sehen können. Kann mir jemand helfen? Herzlichen Dank im voraus! Haraldhttps://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=52202016-10-25 23:24:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=5221Hi. I run a webcam with AbelCam on my main computer. When on holiday I switch off my main computer, therefore no pics. Is it possible to run AbelCam on say a Raspberry Pi to upload pics to my website server without my main computer. Regardshttps://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=52212016-10-08 08:17:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=5222I tried to use it (checked the box) and it said I had an old version and needed to update. So I did so... ("Plugin Download (Updated 2011-11-21) Copy the DLL into the subfolder Plugins/Web in the AbelCam Program folder." Now that plugin doesn't even show up on the list. Question: Must that plugin be available to upload to my FTP server? (I was trying to invoke it in the hopes that clicking it would make AbelCam upload to my FTP.)https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=52222016-08-21 18:10:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=4637 All works perfectly My PC: - Shuttle XS35-703 - Intel 64 architecture, Core clock: 1.66GHz - DDR CORSAIR 2Gb - Webcam (Asus Webcam Integrated into the monitor) - Logitech Pro 900 Processor in use (with network monitoring tool) : 40-55% Mémory : 60% free Processor grown up usage : 12% (+/-2 per camera) Configuration : - TyCapture x2 - Streaming x2 - ftp x2 - etc - image Size (original configuration) Seems to be perfect ... great evolution since 2004 A connection with an iPhone 4 (java & safari, external player... ) is not easier than a windows phone https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=46372016-05-10 01:23:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=5212Hi there how can i block ip address that are trying to get into the cam software https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=52122015-11-28 03:51:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=5215Hello, I am aware that if you right click on the window within Abelcam it will popup a larger window but what i would like to know is, is there a way to expand that window or to open the window to full screen ? I would like to be able to see the window full screen or as i wish to set it. Thanks in advance.. MarkBhttps://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=52152015-11-28 03:48:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=4900With this button, you can instantly disable motion detection for a selected number of camera's ( e.g. all your indoor camera's ). On your webpage people will see a "Camera offline" image. I think it isn't to hard to create and would really be useful when you use AbelCam as a home security system.https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=49002015-09-27 00:08:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=5063I would like to know if AbelCam supports rtsp protocol? I own a camera ip chinese but I can not see ithttps://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=50632015-09-06 22:50:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=5210Hello, unfortunately several (including mine) Webcams are not listed on the 'Abelcam Cameras' page anymore; although the box 'config./Internet/List' or 'public' box is checked. I tried SW-restarts with (un-)checking the box etc. but after a short while the list is nearly empty. Running the 4.4.2 Pro SW-Version on a Windows 10 / 64 Bit OS. As far as I understand Abelcam.com (your "CAM-list Server"is checking on a regular base if a Client ("my local webserver" is still alive. Do I need to open a Special port for this -lets call it- "re-checking" or send some Kind of a Keep-alive-packet? Any idea would be much appreciated. My cams used to be online 24/7/365. BTW Abelcam is doing a great Job on Windows 10 (!!!). Migration was easy and done in a few minutes. Only some troublewith the WMV Mediaserver (no function). Thanks in advance and best regards.

Is there any way I can re install AbelCam and transfer all my settings and registration key without re entering every thing separatly. Regardshttps://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=52062015-08-16 16:22:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=5191I have several old XP computers that are retired and their function in retirement is to run AbelCam. There is no way I am purchasing a new OS for these retired boxes. I was made to upgrade from 4.2.8 Pro after receiving this message: "Although this is a automated message, it has a valid sender address and you may reply. AbelCam 4.2.8 is going to expire in 33 days. Download the latest version from here http://www.AbelCam.com/en/download and upgrade AbelCam." After installing, the new version states it cannot be run on Windows XP. Game over? https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=51912015-05-02 16:52:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=2685I am in the process of trying to find the cause of this problem, either it be Abelcam or a Logitech driver issue. Frequently the camera will 'turn off' and stop working, displaying the default Orbit camera picture inside of Abelcam. When I restart Abelcam it works again till the next time. The camera runs from days down to hours. I am running on Windows 2003 SBS with this camera information...

Does anyone have any recommendations for a similar replacement as this model doesn't appear to be available any longer in the UK. Preferably USB & PTZ. Thanks for any information anyone can provide.

Abelcam detected my tuner card, identifies it as a WinTV 7164. Under Config/Tuner it seems to detect the video source as NTSC Input 1 'Cable' which appears correct. But it never streams, I just get the big eyeball and of course when I hit it from the browser it tells me its 'offline'. WinTV does stream the cameras Ok. Am I doing something unsupported? Thanks......https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=51902014-06-29 23:08:00https://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=5187Hallo zusammen, ich habe bei meiner Modelleisenbahn 3 (später 4) einfache Logitech-Webcams (USB) angehängt, welche die verdeckten Strecken an 2 Bildschirmen anzeigen. Es heisst auf dem Bildschirm beim Ausschalten stets "TyCapture" funktioniert nicht gut mit dieser Kamera". Es geht schon, aber die Bilder sind also nicht superscharf. Ich verwende Abelcam schon seit Jahren und bin eigentlich zufrieden damit. Trotzdem nervt es mich jetzt plötzlich, dass es offenbar eine bessere Einstellung gibt, aber ich diese nicht herausfinde. Könnte mir jemand erklären, was ich tun soll? 2 Kameras laufen auf einem Windows 7 Starter Edition Notebook mit angehängtem grösserem Bildschirm und 1 (später 2) Kameras laufen auf einem alten XP-Desktop (nur offline). Ich wäre für eine Hilfestellung oder eine Anregung, was ich prüfen könnte, sehr dankbar. Ich habe sonst im Forum und im Wiki nichts Konkretes dazu gefunden. Vielen Dank im Voraus und beste Grüsse MPfeifferhttps://abelcam.com/forum/view_topic?topic_id=51872014-06-25 14:11:00
