Does this live webcam work in your opera version/setting? didn't work for me

As they say in this website, the live webcam should work in opera. But it does not. For me at least, looks like it is refreshing continuously when half loaded or stuck there. It works fine in IE8. The controls works fine too.
I used opera 10 on win xp home and vista home with no luck. I have problems with webcams from other sources for obvious reasons (where they used axis media control which I guess activeX based).

Can anyone verify?

What happens to me on that website (and others) is exactly the same as you. It's as if it's stuck in a loop and keeps retrying. If someone knows what's wrong it'd be helpful, but tbh I don't even bother trying to use Opera with webcams anymore because so few of them work.

yes, my general experience with many webcams are bad but as I looked deeper, most of those are due to active-x. For the case mentioned here, the site claims to be working with opera and alternative browsers but does not.
