USB Camera Troubles

[Brian564]

Hey, I'm a programmer on team 564 for Longwood high school, I was wondering if you could help us solve our issues with the Java Smart Dashboard 2.0.

We're able to use our USB camera plugged into the roboRIO on the default LabView dashboard, but we're unable to get it to work with the camera widget on the Smart Dashboard 2.0. We're not sure how MJPEG streaming works, or what the path to the .mjpeg is supposed to be. We have an IP camera but we're not sure how to put that into the Smart Dashboard either.

Also our saved dashboard layouts seem to corrupt after computer restart. Trying to load a previous Smart Dash save file doesn't do anything, we have to rebuild it. Loading dashboards only works for .dash files that were created after the last boot.

If you could give us anything you know about these issues that would help a lot.
