I got my UVC G3 cam from Ubiquiti running. What you need to do is to allow for "Enable Anonymous Snapshot" on settings page. Please also assign a fixed IP to the cam. Having done so your can grab pictures from it by selecting "External Picture" in Meteobridge Weather Cam section on "Station" tab and giving this URL "http://ip-of-the-cam-in-your-lan/snap.jpeg".

To my surprise the UVC G3 can also be handled as a regular Ubiquiti cam in Meteobridge. Just give "ubnt" as password. I you don't want the Ubiquiti watermark, you can deselect that on settings page of the G3 itself.

Not that the G2's are available anymore but the external picture option also works fine with a G2 Pro

I was able to grab snapshots using the Meteobridge Weather Cam... clicking on the camera produced a nice aircam.jpeg. I had a problem however getting a successful image to appear on admin.meteobridge...... Until last night! For whatever reason I am now getting great images with all the data attached to the image.... So nice! Even better I won't get booted from WU (again). I'm using -resize 852x480 to produce an image of @ 115KB... WU allows an image upto 150KB.. Could you give me some additional -resize parameters that I can try to get closer to the 150KB allowable limit?
Thank You so much... This is fantastic!
