Seen what looks like a dodgy ebay add that professes to turn your UX50 into a spycam that can then eb viewed from any othet PC on your wi-fi network. Anyone heard of this or have it?

The problem with cliepet's app (as wonderful as it works) is that it doesn't work as a network stream, you can only view the camera from the bundled application. so its not a webcam.

From what I can read on the page, it can stream JPEG still images to a remote PC via WiFi.

I think guysoft is after a program which can be viewed from anywhere via a web browser.

spycam doesn't stream JPG
Its not detected in programs like VLC, only in its own GUI.

True. It is just suspect that his feedback is hidden and this has all the hallmarks of a scam :confused:
