1. I have the Vivotek 6112 PTZ. I currently use the Vivotek 3000 option in the prog pull-down menu and everything works fine. However, this camera has preset locations so you don't have to keep pressing left/right/up/down to move the camera and one for "home" location. Could you please add support for these presets?
2. Add a "disabled motion detection" feature when using the camera controls.
3. Show "Current Connections" above the main image in the program when " HTTP Server" is enabled; instead of having to keep the "HTTP Server" options open.
Regards,
Lee

It's impossible to add features to every webcam. There are hundreds on the market. If you know http commands for these presets, you can bind
'Network Camera > Administration Webpage', 'View Image Webpage', 'Pan, Tilt, Zoom' options to the presets. You will see additional items under the Options button and arrow buttons above the preview window.

What controls do you mean? A lot of them can affect the motion detector.

It will break the current controls composition. The option table synchronization button (the round black icon above the option table) can prevent the option table from jumping.

I had already entered the commands for these presets; pan tilt zoom. I was wondering if it would be possible to add a few more blocks where we could add additional presets? IE Scan, Home. And maybe add a handful of blocks for people with PTZ cameras to add our presets.
Almost all PTZ cameras have this functionality and you wouldn't have to specify a particular title for the blocks except for Scan, Home. The other blocks for "telling the camera to look North" could say "Preset 1". Maybe add five blocks for us to fill in the http commands for "Preset 1-5".

I noticed that when I pan or tilt and motion detection is enabled it will start recording. The software that comes with the cameras has a feature to disabled motion detection when using the camera controls.

OK

I will add the Scan and Home buttons. You can get the two additional presets, using the 'Network Camera > Administration Webpage' and 'View Image Webpage' options. I have to stop further option spreading 
I'll fix it.

Thank you.
I did try to utilize the admin web page and view image web page options but it ends up accessing IE web browser and then states that the parameters were accepted. So I will keep those assigned for their intended purpose.
Can I suggest for the two options that you're going to add, just title them Preset 1, 2? Thank you.
Regards,
Lee

Sorry I forgot how these options work.

I have to keep uniform names for these options, as for usb ptz cameras.

madalwx,
Please try the beta version:
http://www.willingsoftware.com/download/willingwebcam46.exe
You can install the new release over the old one without an uninstallation to keep your program settings (in 'Willing Webcam\ww.ini' file) and created media files (in 'Willing Webcam\My Pictures' directory).

Outstanding/. Both scan and home functions along w/ the disabling of motion while panning. I did notice motion captures occur during scan mode, but that's ok for me since there's a reason to use scan....to see if something is there. And therefore you want it captured.
Thank you for the hard workl.
Lee

Yes, I didn't disable the motion detection for the scan mode at all, because the scanning on the webcam side and it's impossible to disable the motion detection only during motion. I suppose that the disabling during whole period of the scanning is not correctly.
I have increased the stop delay for the motion detection.
Again, http://www.willingsoftware.com/download/willingwebcam46.exe
How much time the home function takes to execute?

Checks OK. No motion during Home function.
Initiation is instantaneous to go Home.
