It's been a while since I posted this widget and had no idea people were posting comments, let alone downloading it...

It's probably easiest to get questions answered via email as I don't check for these posts very often...obviously.

Keep an eye out over the coming weeks as I will be posting a completely updated version of the widget which hopefully will include all cameras in the Metro Detroit area.

All the widget does is display a JPG file that is downloaded from the traffic camera on port 80 via HTTP. There is a "NO VIDEO" file that is display by the actual camera / server when the connection is lost. It essentially means the camera is offline.

Do you continue to have trouble or did it resolve itself once the camera More

Well, my message was cut off then posted twice...here is the rest of it:

Do you continue to have trouble or did it resolve itself once the camera came back online?

Yes.

i have not been able to get the camera feeds for the last couple of weeks. All i get is the "No Video" screen. Any ideas on a solution?
Thanks.

it is good idea, i like it.

It has come to my attention that the feeds that the widget was previously using are no longer available. I had previously made mention of a second version which would include more cameras, however those efforts with Metro Commute (company that hosts content) fell through. It looks like there is a new company hosting the content, so I will try again. Stay tuned...
