Ah, well, I'm now having Fettuccine go into paused mode whenever there's any kind of network problem...

Hmm. The error message "Fettuccine failed to access internet" is displayed whenever the QNetworkAccessManager object sends a signal that the network is not available. This message should never occur when the network is actually up; although, I could imagine that it may take a few seconds before Qt recognizes that network availability has changed.

the app will not load the image until one re-selects the camera from the drop-down menu (this is true from start-up AND in using the pause/resume function and on return from sleep ie. when pause is showing).
Now, this is confusing. I think this would have to mean that something has gotten really messed up (either the webcam URL or something to do with the Qt networking), but that just reinitializing the URL fixes everything...

I have to admit, I've never seen this exact behavior before. If I may, can I ask that you test for this behavior using a different webcam (such as, say, the Old Faithful webcam)? Maybe there's something unique about your webcam. Thanks!
