After replacing the Snappy Capture device the Gnome Cam is still crapping out regularly. I thought the day/night cam was overworked so I installed a timer to turn it off between 11pm and 8am when it's not in use. This appears to have made the situation worse. The Snappy software either craps out on capture, or displays "no video signal" which leads me to believe the wired cam is unreliable for picture quality. Since Snappy craps out in these situations I'll have to abandon my long-time friend and switch to a real capture card. There will be a ceremony in it's honor involving cremation (including it's original 9-volt battery for cool effects).
