Similar to lights that come on at dusk and turn off at dawn, as well as automatically adjusting for daylight savings times, it would be great to see a similar functionality embedded into the cameras.
example 1 - camera 1, preset 1 position (front door) from dusk to dawn.
Sometimes we use our camera to check things out, however, we'd always like to default it to a certain position (preset) during certain times.
Also, would like to see a vacation mode option that plays selectable audio files upon motion detection (i.e. dog barking sound, intruder alert, etc.)
The preset can be set on For Operation section, but cannot set schedule.
For the vacation mode, turn on motion detect and set schedule for the alarm.

Thanks a lot for your advice!
Will forward them to the R&D department on our meeting.

It would be helpful to have customizable text overlays built into the firmware as well.
example: Front Door or local police dept. phone number
I have the local police dept. phone number specified for one of my non-Foscam cameras based in another country.
