As I have said on previous posts, will share any work/script I have and always willing to help where I can.
Considering most of it is with the help of people on this forum, it makes sense.

Here are some free scripts that support automatically storing only one image on disk:

There are two versions. One is completely secure. They have many live real-time working examples and demonstrations:

Here is one Foscam FI9805W using the scripts with an Infinite Zoom ability:

Note: The secure version works with ANY IP Camera brand and model and even any imaging device such as a webcam that has the ability to pull images from it using HTTP or HTTPS. Both versions can use HTTP or HTTPS.

Thanks Don
I use one of those script.
But the point is now that with the last update the picture at night is very bad. It is as it was before three updates.

If you mean that the picture is bad at night with the IR lights off. Then Foscam is aware of this and is working on a fix in a future firmware release.

The picture should be ok at night with the IR lights on if the cameras view is a dark area.

Before the two last updates, the picture was very very good, with the ir off. From the first night i make the update is very bad. Also at day the picture isn't so good as it was before the two last updates. You can see it now here: http://www.meteoacharnes.gr/hd-ok.htm
Its with ir off and the script you mention before.
Thanks a lot for your respond.

You are very welcome.

I do know that Foscam is aware of the night issue with IR off. So I will inform them of your issues about the image quality being worse then it was during the daytime as well. This is a new complaint about the recent firmware versions and daytime image quality.

Note: I am a moderator in the Foscam.us Forum. So I am in constant contact with Foscam.us as well as Foscam.com ("China") developers.

I know that you are moderator at foscam forum. I read it very often. And i'll see tha you are very kind and trying to help people. For this reason i said to you all about the picture.
Something good for 9805 cam, will be to use ftp for pictures with the same name. It will be very easy for owners of weather stations to upload images only with the ftp of the camera.
I have another two Foscam and do this.
In Greece i have test for a long time this camera and many owners of weather station have bought it.
Here is one friend of mine. He use ir at night: http://kaisari-zhreia.meteoclub.gr/

I don't think I've ever had a good picture at night with the ir off, that's why I choose to not display after a certain hour....

I'm still running V-2.14.2.8_20140415 and my support case with them has never been answered regarding the loss of FTP after upgrade, so i'm a little apprehensive about updating the firmware to the latest one.

From Foacam there is a NEW script secure to upload very easy your .jpg. You can find it here: http://107.170.59.150/V40/SecureImageDisplayV40.zip .

I have try it with Foscam, Level1, Apexis and a noname cam and its working very Well. Its full secure and none can see your ddns and your port. Also you can add your logo or weather Data.
