I can't solve your problem but I do have one thought as I watch some of the
Africams too. Pete's Pond, Djuma and Nkorho. Once in a while I have noticed
that they change the urls. I don't remember which one does it but this has
happened to me when I have saved a link to a cam. Then I have to go into the
home
page and go to the cam and save the updated link. Just a thought.
Also if they have never gone to the Djuma one it is a great cam to watch as
they take the camera on a mini safari and film live whatever they encounter. I
have seen every kind of animal on there. In fact I saw a Cheetah the other
day. Here is a link to this one. They only do it twice a day. I am on Pacific
Daylight saving time so it is at about 6:00 AM and 8:00 PM my time I think.
Otherwise it is just a still cam showing a waterhole.
