Add New Cameras
From a variety of types of media formats
Piclapse was originally founded to make boring static webcam images more dynamic. Anyone can add new .jpg camera URLs to Piclapse to start being tracked. Additionally, the platform also supports more advanced streaming formats from high end devices that stream from YouTube as well as serve the m3u8 format.
JPG
Users who have the app can add new cameras to the list on their own. Simply copy the webcam's image URL and proceed through the 3-step questionaire in the app to add it to Piclapse's list of cameras that it tracks and from which it creates timelapse videos.
YouTube
Many higher end webcams now stream via YouTube. Piclapse is also capable of capturing timelapse videos from these sources. If you have a YouTube streaming camera you'd like to add, fill out the request below.
M3U8
Additionally streaming formats leverage the M3U8 formats for long running embedded streaming video on websites. Similar to to the YouTube, fill out the form below to request our administrators to add a new M3U8 videos source to Piclapse's list.
