Reviewer: webtruck Version: AbelCam 2.0.4 Date: Nov 18, 2006 Rating:

videoman probably did not really try this. While it is true, that without any license the software stops to run after 30 minutes, you can request a free license. With the free license, LogiSphere runs six hours every day. I use this software with three cameras, and I am quite happy with it. I love it\'s flexibilty, the java PTZ controls and the motion detection work great!

Note that this is NOT Freeware. You get a popup after about 30 minutes telling you to get buy a license. The server halts and the software has to be restarted. I couldn't find this feature anywhere on their webpage. #2, I have been using U-Broadcast, and with the installation of Logisphere, U-Broadcast was no longer able to find my webcam, even without Logisphere being started. I have no clue what was up with that, but I had to uninstall Logisphere to get U-Broadcast to work again. All that said, this is a pretty full featured webcam server package, and it seems to work well. It's probably worth the US$25. But I knocked off some stars because of the relative deception on the "freeness" of it.
