robintodd Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Seems as though the first two live cams have been changed. Good news is a better wider view. Bad news....They are upside down Hope they fix it because the new views are fantastic! https://www.visitkingsisland.com/live-video 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coasterteam Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Was watching these for a while after they had gone down for a few hours yesterday before they came back online at night. Banshee linked cam is showing Planet Snoopy/Rivertown. Diamondback cam is showing more of Coney Mall. Forgot that Ohio is actually upside down! Silly Ohio... These cams also seem to be running either new software or are new cams because they seem visually better in some sense. Here's a comparison of the cams. Old Diamondback : New Diamondback: (image was flipped 180 degrees) Old Coney Mall: New Coney Mall: shift the coney mall camera to the left about 30 degrees... Fun little comparisons! Old photos were from a few days ago I had luckily saved for some reason. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robintodd Posted November 17, 2022 Author Share Posted November 17, 2022 The new cameras are definitely pushing more information, you can tell by the studder in the live views. Looking forward to seeing them during Winterfest! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klabergian Empire Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Despite the fact I have to flip my laptop over to see the view right side up, those views are fantastic! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dio daGoat Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 I am most excited post winterfest to watch the Adventure Port construction. Think they'll leave them up in the super-off season? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoomPlague Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 I have mainly used the cams to look at the Diamondback queue and estimate what crowds are like. Now I can see the lines for other rides too, so that's a plus 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a fun way to pass time in the summer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperial79 Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Very cool. Hopefully soon they turn the cameras around, so they’re not upside down. Nice to see they’re clean too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see they’re clean too. Modern cameras typically let you flip/rotate the image in their settings. I imagine the camera host lets you do that too. Though cameras often have a little sun visor and you typically want that facing the right way... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could they be re painting or doing lift motor work? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes mystics are on and db off, db on mystic off, ect. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
