Cam keeps freezing intermittantly.
« on: October 04, 2012, 01:43:54 PM »

While using X10 to view my cameras, the video will occationally freeze up (about once every 1 to 4 minutes). If I click a different camera it will start up again. I looked through the posts but can find anything. There are no macros/timers/motion detectors involved. I have 3 xc18a ninja mounted cams and use AHP Pro on a really beefy machine. Any help please?

I guess 106 people never had this happen. My equipment must be faulty I guess. javascript:void(0);

Maybe if you have a little more data. It may jog someones thoughts.
AHP Version?
VA11A, VA12A or VA13A video interface?
Operating system on the computer?
X10 Software being used to view the cameras video?

I am using Active Home Pro (latest) w/all plug-ins. I use the cm15a off a home built machine with Windows 7 Pro, 8 GB RAM, i5@3.213MHz (quad-core), liquid cooled. A Geforce 8800 GT graphics card and I do have a TV Tuner card. (Anyone know what X10Tuner is? I don't.) All on an ASUS motherboard. The house is split on two sides, A and B. Cameras run at C using the va12a. I also have the DS7000 security setup. (For whatever odd reason I can not make side A of the house behave with using a TM751 that often clicks on and off at random.)
It was difficult enough to install the drivers, but the picture freezes intermittantly and won't start up again unless I change cameras and go back.

Rolled back to AHP v3.314. All better. No more locking up or freezing and no crash upon pressing record.
