Problem with external Webcam

Votes:

0

Hello I am trying to add this webcam (which is external) to a MAP. http://baspomedia.ch/webcam/Webcam_BASPO.jpg

When I use this code <iframe width="200" height="100" src="http://baspomedia.ch/webcam/Webcam_BASPO.jpg" frameborder="0" scrolling="yes" style="overflow: hidden;"></iframe> The Image is not in the right size, put every time the Map make an auto refresh also the JPG have a new Timestamp. When I refresh the Map with F5 the Picture is updated.

When I use this code <img width="100%" height="100%" src="http://baspomedia.ch/webcam/Webcam_BASPO.jpg"> The Image takes the size of the Custom HTML Object put when the Map is auto refreshed the JPG have always an old Timestamp and is not refreshed What is the Magic for doing to size the Picture as needed and refresh the Picture every Time an auto refresh run?

Hi there,

The image is actually updated, but the update interval of the image doesn't match the updates of the image, hence you won't see an updated image with every map refresh. Can you verify that?


Kind regards,
