Using Logitech Sphere, I try to do following:
1. make a move: ex: http://localhost:8080/up0-3
2. wait for x seconds
3. using http://localhost:8080/current.jpg to display the picture after move
It seems that current.jpg is not that current, so I do not necessary get a picture from the new position.
I have tried various values of x
In addition I have tried to add ?a=Math.random to the jpg ref
Is'nt so that when firing the current.jpg I really get the current?

Hello Erik
what is the frame rate you're using?
A suggestion to solve this:
In 2. instead of waiting, request a picture just like in 3., but don't use it.
In 3. you will get a live picture.
In order to avoid image processing that won't be used, AbelCam is not capturing at the regular frame rate when nobody is viewing.
Probably you don't get the latest ('current') image, because you are not requesting images regularly.
Adding Math.random is a good idea, probably you'll want to keep that.

Thanks,
I increased the frame rate from 1 to 5 and now it working.
Another minor thing:
Using date in caption shows mm/dd/yyyy when AbelCam runs as a service on my win 2000.
Running as a desktop application shows dd/mm/yyyy. Just for your info.
Regards
