FF2, we do not cache camera images. In some situations this can lead to camera bouncing as you described. The reason we always load new images when changing cameras is to make sure that the image is always as fresh as possible as well as to save memory. Try playing with the settings in the options menu. You'll find you can set the maximum, minimum and ideal ranges for cameras. Usually you can stop weird behavior by finding settings that work well for your area.

I hope that helps

Default works good

i tried it today while driving. i like the way it swithed from camera to camera while i was driving. i jumped off the freeway when i saw the bad traffic ahead. i will play with the settings to try to get a better picture. very nice app. i use to get traffic alerts by email with a snap shot of traffic but this is a lot better.

This is with the prior version (downloading new right now), and I noticed the "uncaught exception" was due to "height width must be positive" or something to that effect.

Love this program. Great companion for my car GPS. My only request at this point.... I'd so love to have Delaware (Kent and Sussex counties) added to the database for the trips to the shore this summer.

As I said above, I really like this program so far. I can't, however, get it to connect to a Bluetooth GPS puck. Can you add this ability?

I have it connected to my Freedom puck. There is a "but" but I think this application interferes with my other gps apps - not sure and have not had a chance to try and isolate the issue.

The program uses the standard GPS functionality of the BlackBerry device to get location. You can configure your BlackBerry to use a bluetooth GPS by going to Options -> Advanced Options -> GPS after pairing it with your device. Some models of GPS puck require you to set them to "trusted" on the bluetooth options screen in order to work properly. Let me know if that helps.

Will this work on a Blackberry that does not have GPS capability? I have a Curve (8300) on the AT&T network.

Traffic Vizzion does work without a GPS device, you just wont be able to use all of the features.

I have used this app for a couple weeks now. It is very nice. I don't have GPS with my 8100 or external GPS, so I have to manually select my cameras. However, you can pick your favorite cameras, say, those on your daily commute, and have the app start up to a list of favorites.

Really a good, solid app. Nice work Jeremy.

Worked like a charm. Thanks! I'll try out the look ahead functions on my commute home this evening.

Default installation problems

I was able to install from the download link. However, when I launch the program, I get caught in an endless loop of the program requiring changes to permissions. It keeps requiring a reboot and I never get any further.
