Default Which web cams work?

As far as i know, there are 3 webcams in puerto pollensa.

Riusech- hasn't worked for ages and still doesn't?

Sail and surf - Good, reliable and works!!

BH - not working at present?

Anyone know of any others and if i am right in saying only sail and surf is currently working?

Thanks

Liz - I think you're right - I've searched for other cams but these seem to be the only ones in PP. I do miss the BH one though as there was always so much 'people' activity! And the Ruisech one was good for a sort of distance view. Can't think why BH and Ruisech always seem to have problems - you'd think that if S & S can manage to keep theirs running, then why cant the others?

Hello everyone. This is my first post to the forum although I registered a while ago and I have been reading most days. I was a bit uncertain how to join in until I saw this post today because it was the question I was going to ask . . So thank you for this.

I had been watching the the BH one for a few days in May, following a link from here, I was really disappointed when it stopped working because I enjoyed the view very much. The best view in the world, in my opinion that is.

I would be really happy if anyone can give me the link to how to the Sail and Surf one, please.

Don't know what system they are using at BH, but our 'town' webcam, kindly hosted by our local photographer, sometimes goes 'down'. Invariably the glitch is caused by a loss of power on the pc or webcam which in turn loses the I.P. address for the server. The whole thing has to be rebooted and new IP address set manually
Here it is at http://tinyurl.com/GHwebcam (hopefully working). You can move the camera left/right/up/down and increase the size of the picture. The notice on the pole in the foreground refers to local parking restrictions, not time spent watching the webcam.
Wouldn't it be good if the estate agents upgraded to one of these? It 'only' cost £120.

He must be a visitor

It gets more interesting later, when the takeaways open and people queue for their taxis (next 2 shops to the right).
