Thanks for your help.

Plug the computer into the tv for a larger screen. Later ones should be compatible.

CONTROL + is a lot easier than rewiring the house, But thanks for the suggestion

CaptJohn, HOW do I plug the computer into the tv? I have wanted to do this for ages! I have a usb port, some rgb hookups, some other colored hookups, and I have no idea what to use. I want to be able to hear the computer on the tv, too. (I have a favorite HULU program that I want to watch on the big screen).

But getting back on topic, I would also love to watch the progress at SS on the big screen.

When your on the LSL webcam, there is a link to the cam for SS below the cam view. You may have to reduce the size of your screen to see it by using <ctrl> -

Again, return to default size by using <ctrl> 0.

just checked and "all is well"! Windy and rainy. Maybe it was a temporary thing when you first checked. I live on the webcam too. It beats valium!

If you are still having streaming problems due to not being able to register the Axis Camera control, you should go to the Axis web site and directly install the control from there. There is something to check on in IE >tools also.

The following link from microsoft gives the info. The ActiveX Camera Control, which enables you to view live image - Microsoft Answers

I wish they would get a cam up at Brownwood so we could keep track there too.

When the center is running with entertainment, I'm sure they will install a third cam. As for now, the cam would have a very limited perspective especially when compared with the Youtube videos they have been producing every month. See: The Building of Brownwood - YouTube

At least with the wind and rain the cob-web on the SS camera is gone Now all I have to worry about is whether our house will still be there when we arrive in a week. Can I borrow one of your valiums?

Up here in the sticks (and trees) we lose power if the wind blows more than 5 mph. Can anyone tell me how stable the power grid is down there? With underground utilities I would think it would be pretty reliable.

I'd love to read what you have to say, but the color you chose makes it a little difficult for these old eyes.It works beautifully on the dark green background but not so well on the white background. Would you consider something a little darker?

If you choose to keep this color, it won't be the end of the world! Many thanks!

[njbchbum]

thank you, doccrocker! will try it!

When you encounter text color that's hard to read, you can try highlighting the text (or place your curser over the text and triple click) like you would if you were going to copy and paste a selection of the text. That should make it easier for you to read.

Try it here ->>> This is a test of the off color reading of text <<<
