 Getting setup and noticed I cannot use Chrome and forced to use IE - not only for viewing personally but website embeds as well. 60%+ of internet browsers are those other than IE. Odd thing is I can see other cams from ConnectFTP on Chrome.

Any ideas?

thx

Bill

 I use the Foscam FI9900P - the error message I get in Chrome: 

Your browser does not support playing .avi / .mkv video files. Please use Microsoft Internet Explorer to view this camera.

 Thanks for reaching out to us, Bill. 

You are absolutely correct - standard browsers to now support .avi/.mkv files. IE is required as it will by default use the local video player such as Windows Media Player. This is completely normal, and not a limitation of DriveHQ/CameraFTP, but rather of web browsers. 

Please let us know if you have any other questions. 

 

Best,
