SlothCam

If you email me via my website, I can try to help you. Auto cycle has a 5 second timer by default. If it takes more than 5 seconds for a particular image to load you might not see it before the widget tries the next image. You can change that via a terminal command (email me) but not within the widget. Also the expected behavior of auto cycle is for the widget to change cameras every 5 seconds while Dashboard is active. There's another feature called "cycle cameras" which instead only changes the camera when you enter dashboard so each time you enter dashboard you see a new cam. That might work better for you if the images you are trying to auto cycle take a long time to load.

Thanks, Jazzyguy.

Jazzyguy - The Times Square webcam is run by a company called Earthcam, not me. Earthcam has decided that 3rd party programs like Slothcam are no longer allowed to view their webcams and they have blocked Slothcam and other 3rd party webcam programs. Earthcam also runs the vegas webcam. So you're out of luck unless you want to take it up with Earthcam. Slothcam does however still work in general for the majority of webcams out there. And you're free to find and add your own cams, you're not limited to the built-in webcams. Those are just intended to be an example of what you can do with Slothcam. There are literally millions of webcams out there that work with slothcam so there is no reason to say it no longer works or it should be deleted from Macupdate.

The only way I could see that happening would be if the image file is large enough to take up that kind of bandwidth even though Slothcam is only requesting the image once per minute

I don't maintain any of the webcams, I just chose some default cams as examples of what you can do with SlothCam. I have replaced the Paris camera in the latest version with a new (different) webcam. I live in Texas, and unfortunately I can't fly all the way to Paris to fix the Paris webcam. :)
