Yawcam will not start.

Post by MrBig »

I have a cheap USB webcam. Works in Windows Explorer but apart from that I cant do much with it, So I thought I would try Yawcam. Installed Java 7. when I try to start Yawcam, I get a message "failed to autodetect ip" with a OK button, click the button and then nothing happens . Works with Vitamin D (Free) software but not with Yawcam or WebcamXP. It did not come with any drivers. Any idea what I need to do? I tried it on another laptop with a built in webcam. Still does not work.
Thanks.

That message isn't related to the camera but to yawcam's ability to detect
your current IP. Are you connected to the internet? Have you allowed yawcam
in your firewall?
