Animatedwebcamday.gif - when updated and uploaded?

I have just set up my webcam to be seen on my website.
A few questions about the animated webcamfiles:

  • How to setup this to have them available on my site?

  • When is this 24 hours file “animatedwebcamday.gif” (half hour steps) updated and what time is it uploaded to my site (only once a day)?

  • There is also a animatedwebcam.gif which shows about fourthy minutes. Is it possible to longer this to say 1 or 2 hours?

Thanks for helping, Peter

hi
to upload the file, go to setup,ftp/internet setup, then web cam upload, then set the times there…
and wd should then upload the animated web cam image…
if you go to view, web cam images from during the day, you can set to have the all day wewb cam image upload to your web site (it does that at 10pm)
and even a detailed one too…(every 10 minutes (as long as you have every minute time stamp ticked in the web cam setup)

Did all that, but still no automatic upload of those pictures.
The only thing that works ok is the most recent webcampicture, the animatedwebcam (last hour), but the animatedwebcamday.gif and the two dailywebcam(2).gifs give trouble. Maybe there is an override set somewhere?

Have a look at my webcam. Click on the picture to see the animation.
Below the first cam are the links to the two dailywebcamfiles.

Just checking the forum in the quiet minutes :slight_smile:

'Hi Brian, after hours of seeking through all settings, in the wdisplay.ini and wdisplayftp.ini files, I went over all settings once more and found on the bottom of the long list with uploadable files with very small font:
File #34 Synop/metar/daily webcam Tide/FWI… without ftp-setting :oops: :hathat49:

It’s working now :signok:
