"Web Cham" - Pun Intended :)

[broderp]

Anyone know of an app or method to have a web cam monitor your Cham? Has anyone ever done this or have a method that works?

I'd love to set up a Web Cham and watch my little guy from the office from time to time.

I have a Yi Dash cam in my car. Love it. I was not aware they had this! I will definitely look into this. Your screen shot looks great. Is that a screen shot of a video stream or a single image capture from the Yi??

I am SO getting one of these..... (I'm already hooked)

I got this one because it was 1080p as well as the app allows you to move the camera. I'm sure both the ones you have would do the job fine tho.

Blue Iris is another good software for ip cameras.

Don't do it. You don't really want to know about the wild parties that go on when you are not there...

different colors dont hurt.. unless you are positive that it wont work without black (try not to get purple or ANY neon colors..) i would imagine green would work pretty well. that is if they have lots of different colors

How did you mount the camera in the cage?

How did you mount the camera in the cage?

I have a wood enclosure so I put the phone in a plastic baggie to keep from getting wet, cut a hole where the lens is and then stuck a tac through the the bag and into the wood.

This is from this morning, I put it outside the cage today so I could keep the charger plugged in(longer cord coming in mail).

Well crap, just my luck. Amazon shipped my camera to the wrong place. I got the microSD card though...
