New Camera Viewer Software

Unread postby Jason Rose » Mon Oct 28, 2013 6:36 am

:stop:

I have switched over to the new software. Many thanks to those of you that helped test it.

If you are having problems, please update your internet browser to Internet Explorer 10 or Firefox 24. Others may work as well, but I've tested these. Please also update your Java software (java.com).

If you are unable to update your software, there is a link below the cameras that will take you to the old viewer.

In addition to the nifty new counter, this new software will work with the Android OS.

Also, the Train Bulletin has been updated (subject to change) and there is a count-down to the departure of Train 216 on Opening Day 2014.

As always, suggestions for improvements are appreciated... so are donations to keep the cameras running.

Still seeing old camera site using safari on a mac at 6pm. in MD.
You mentioned Android OS.
Is there an app for iOS?
Thanks for your effort on our part.

Jason - thanks for the new viewer - like the count down timer. Is it set to zero at 10 AM on Memorial Day Saturday?

The biggest problem in the new viewer, however, is that I don't see any engines shuffling around :lol: !

If you clear your cache, you shoud see the new page. Last resort: reboot.

There isnt an app. You don't need one. The cameras play from the page now.

Yes sir, it's counting down to Saturday, May 24, 10:00 AM MT

I agree, it's too quiet.

Is it my imagination or is the resolution better in the full screen mode?

I think it may be a touch better. I don't know for sure, but I'm guessing the new viewer is better at decoding the stream. The data coming from the camera hasn't changed.
