Title: My camera goes blank at times. Help
Post by: pissed off on June 02, 2005, 07:26:55 AM

Does anyone have this problem? I have a
single X10 camera and when i use Xray vision
and even Active webcam the screen will go
blank every now and then. I have to reset the
program to get the camera to show again.

What gives? I am getting so sick of x10.

Active webcam cannot use the same USB video
adapter at the same time X ray vision is
loaded, turn one application off, I use

version 123 v3, but have to turn it off if I
use another application that requires the
use of the USB video adapter.

I you are using a laptop to view the image
live and another window is opened over the
x10 (Xray Vision Window) the picture will
go black.  Try moving the xRay Vision
window (drag it with the mouse)and the
picture will return.  no need to reboot the
software to fix this trouble.  If you are
using a Flat screen monitor LCD type the
same thing will happen.  I you are getting
a gray screen, then the camera has went to
sleep.  Give it time to reset and try
waking it up with your firecracker unit.
Hope this helps.
