It worked fine last week, so what change too this week then??

Again - it could be your connection, if you're not using your own home internet.  The service provider may have blocked it.

If you are using your own private connection, I haven't a clue.

Try a different browser on your computer.  Most are free these days.

I hadn't been able to see it because my graphics program wasn't able to handle it due to my still being on Vista, but I just tried, and aside from the spiderweb and puffy seed, it's working fine.

Are you on your own connection, or are you using someone else's, like a library or a wifi hotspot?  It's possible the provider has blocked video feeds like this.  Can you see any of the other live feeds, such as those on YouTube?

Or, if you're using open access wifi, try a different location.

Just a few seconds ago (@2:38) I watched a BNSF train, with a KCS unit in 'Belle' colors trailing the power, with full sound and no video dropouts.  The zoom works from my system, from the mouse scroll wheel, as well as it ever did.

This on a Macintosh, running OS X 10.11.6 and Firefox 61.0.2 64-bit off a USB2 external drive, on a crappy AT&T Uverse Ethernet cable to wireless bridge connection that often experiences slow page loading.

Make sure your browser and operating system still support the camera's video format.  I haven't watched the Rochelle cam from home in ages for that very reason.

There is a train going by right now--and the lunch? is dancing in the wind.

It seems to be working for me also; this morning there was a truck by the track, and it is gone this afternoon.

You're right--I tuned in, and...no trains!  I was there for at least a couple of minutes.

Seriously, the camera is sending me a good picture--I can see a spider's lunch moving in the breeze, as well as tree limbs in motion. So it must be a problem at your end of the wires.
