      Hi,
      we can't submit a new webcam. Windy says "We already process this webcam", but it's not true. The cam we are submitting is a new one.

      Thanks

        Hi @oavv-segemar, would you send me the URL of the webcam? I will check it.

            @oavv-segemar Hello, this webcam is already on Windy.com - https://on.windy.com/6hl71

              Hi @korina ,

              that's the bug. The webcam you say is on this URL:
              https://oavv.segemar.gob.ar/show_webcam.php?volcan=LM&sitio=FEA

              The new webcam we are trying to submit is:
              https://oavv.segemar.gob.ar/show_webcam.php?volcan=CP&sitio=AGS

              I invite you to check the links and actually see both are different webcams. For some reason Windy is not parsing correctly the URL and thinks both are the same.

              Thanks

                    Checking Windy, there were another webcams we submitted months ago, and are now gone.

                    Trying to submit them again, I get the same error: "We already process this webcam"

                    I think there is an URL parsing problem, which makes think Windy the webcam is the same.

                    URLs are:
                    https://oavv.segemar.gob.ar/show_webcam.php?volcan=LN&sitio=AAL
                    https://oavv.segemar.gob.ar/show_webcam.php?volcan=PT&sitio=CF1

                        @oavv-segemar Hello again, after a closer look, we are unable to add webcam https://oavv.segemar.gob.ar/show_webcam.php?volcan=CP&sitio=AGS. Don't you, by any chance, have a different URL?

                          @korina No, sorry... we have a single API url to our webcams, which is https://oavv.segemar.gob.ar/show_webcam.php?volcan="Volcano initials"&sitio="Volcano webcam name"

                            @oavv-segemar Then unfortunately adding your webcam is currently not possible.

                              @Korina Hi, sorry to open an old thread, but we are facing same problem again.
                              I need to submit a webcam we recently installed in Antarctica, but Windy says it already exists (which is wrong).
                              Cam URL is:
                              https://oavv.segemar.gob.ar/show_webcam.php?volcan=ID&sitio=NID

                              Lat: -62.976667
                              Lon: -60.700878

                              Thanks

                                @Van-Van-5 I don't get it... I want to add a NEW webcam, not remove an existing one.

                                  @OAVV-SEGEMAR Yes, we already have this webcam and it's this one - https://www.windy.com/-Webcams/Argentina/Neuquén-Province/Comision-de-Fomento-de-Coyuco-Cochico/webcams/1638033457?cams,no2,-36.209,-83.672,5

                                    @Korina Hi, sorry but it's a different one. The one I am submitting is at latitude 63 South, in Antarctica.
                                    The URL is different too. I don't know why Windy thinks it's the same URL. Maybe some bug into the parsing function?.

                                    The URL of the webcam you say:
                                    https://oavv.segemar.gob.ar/show_webcam.php?volcan=LM&sitio=FEA

                                    The NEW URL of the webcam in Antarctica:
                                    https://oavv.segemar.gob.ar/show_webcam.php?volcan=ID&sitio=NID

                                    Thanks

                                      @OAVV-SEGEMAR said in Can't submit new webcam:

                                      we can't submit a new webcam. Windy says "We already process this webcam", but it's not true. The cam we are submitting is a new one.

                                      It's definitely frustrating when Windy rejects your webcam submission with an inaccurate message. Here are some steps you can take to resolve the issue
                                      URL Accuracy: Ensure the submitted URL points directly to the latest image snapshot of your webcam, not a website homepage or video stream.
