Works fine with updates on safari on my iPad.
I just tried it on my new iPhone 12, and it works on Safari.  I guess it doesn't like something on my browser on my laptop (the browser is Microsoft Edge).

Not sure who currently runs the Live Cam, but I'd be happy to put my own equipment up there to replace it and host a public URL myself.

The problem seems to be caused by HTTP links.  More and more of the browsers out there try to switch to HTTPS whenever possible.

Once they change a page from HTTP to HTTPS, the link to the camera (HTTP, no server certificate) is unencrypted, and the browser folks have decided that's unsafe.

Be interesting to see how many go to the link Wrightwood posted earlier (which is HTTP:) and get the HTTPS version.

I can totally provide SSL on the camera. What I was specifically talking about was how http://66.146.102.124/-wvhttp-01-/getoneshot?frame_count=no_limit&image_size=960x540 is now a mostly-black screen.

... black screen because your browser is set to ignore insecure content on a secure page.

Seems to me that you can either throw more hardware at the problem, or serve http://www.wrightwoodcalif.com/townlive.htm without SSL/TLS.

Works fine here, no black screen, but asking people to figure out how to change browser settings is unreasonable.

It's definitely the camera, as this is what I see: https://i.imgur.com/Apx5BcZ.png

And I have no mixed-HTTPS content warnings in Chrome Dev Tools.

Well, I see the image just fine.  It may be as simple as a setting on the camera.

Suggest you PM "Wrightwood" and offer your assistance.  He might take you up on it, or he might already have a better solution coming.

Two different camera images that's making it confusing

Camera #1
The PTZ camera on Mtn Hardware is dead. We have a replacement and waiting for clear weather and no crowds to replace the camera (will take time). You will receive the black image if your using the old link:

Camera #2
This is a traffic cam that is facing the stop sign and has been used as a temporary substitution for Camera #1 while it's down. It is not a secure https connection and does cause issues for some browsers and works for others. http://www.wrightwoodcalif.com/townlive.htm

As an experiment try this link: http://incidentcontrol.com/cam/townlive.htm

Please give feedback on the link
