There was an error loading the PTZ definition list

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install latest version (original installed version was a few back)
2. Right-click camera (if PTZ controller was shown, endless loop with this error
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
4.5.4.0

Not sure what version was installed but I think it was 4.3.?.?

Please provide any additional information below.

hello not sure what is going on there - click "get latest list" on the PTZ tab 
when editing the camera.

I went back to version 4.3.?.? after I went thru the registery and deleted
everything that had iSpy in the name (because at least the current version
kept remembering the previous settings...where is that kept?)...I dont have
the error anymore but the software will not connect to the Foscam camera. I
will try again tonight and maybe try on a virtual machine to be sure it is
something with the computer and not the camera.

Btw, can't get past the error on the new software...endless loop with a
dialog box stating the error.

-latest didn't work (no connect to camera) in a VM using generic FOSCAM
driver or the driver for my camera (8910)
-older (4.3.?.?) worked using generic FOSCAM driver
-reinstalled latest in VM.  I loaded a previous export of settings in the
VM with latest software, and it worked fine
-on the real computer, I discovered 'Reset iSpy', which allowed me to get
out of the endless loop regarding a dialog box stating the error.  Using
previous export setting, it worked but no matter what I try for generic
FOSCAM or for the 8910, it would not work.

Attached is the settings that works with the newest software.

I have the same issue with the last version of iSpy. (6.2.4.0.)
I have a PTZ cam that is not supported, I edited the XML config file, adding 
these lines in the bottom, before the </PTZSettings2>

  <Camera id="199">
    <Makes>
      <Make Name="Mediacom" Model="ME-WIP100" />      
    </Makes>
    <CommandURL>
    </CommandURL>
    <Commands>
      <Center>/cgi-bin/action?action=cam_mv&diretion=cam_home</Center>
      <Left>/cgi-bin/action?action=cam_mv&diretion=cam_left</Left>
      <Right>/cgi-bin/action?action=cam_mv&diretion=cam_right</Right>
      <Up>action?action=cam_mv&diretion=cam_up</Up>
      <Down>/cgi-bin/action?action=cam_mv&diretion=cam_down</Down>
    </Commands>
    <ExtendedCommands>
      <Command Name="H Patrol">/cgi-bin/action?action=pan_scan</Command>
      <Command Name="V Patrol">/cgi-bin/action?action=tilt_scan</Command>
    </ExtendedCommands>
  </Camera>

I'm not a programmer, so I may have done some mistakes. Am I missing something?
