To answer my own query, this old post seems to be a way to go using xdotool.

Re: Dashticz standby screen

Hello, How do you display the popup when triggered by an external event. I'm interested. ;) Firstly, my Dashticz version is over 2 years old, here's the relevant section from the documentation for that time. If its no longer accurate, someone please correct. .

Dashticz standby screen

Hello, I use Dashticz in standby mode to display a dimmed camera for night use. That works fine, and I also use the popup feature to display that camera on top of the dimmed display when triggered by some external event, that also works fine. But what I can't work out is how to bring the full ...

Re: List of working Wifi Camera's, or tips

Just spun up a basic Dashticz server instance for testing, It's a manual setup using Nginx, and MediaMTX. Its streaming 4 RTSP cameras, plus a Raspberry Pi camera, plus a node-red dashboard that was added to fill up the display, all in WebRTC This is running on a Raspberry Pi3, and judging by its ...

Re: List of working Wifi Camera's, or tips

To get rtsp live video into Dashticz, I currently use Shinobi to stream in Base64 over Websocket format, displayed in Dashticz browser iFrames. However I have started experimenting with MediaMTX : MediaMTX (formerly rtsp-simple-server) is a ready-to-use and zero-dependency real-time media server and ...

Re: Dashticz timeout errors to connect to webpage

I did a manual setup using Apache instead of Nginx: it works like a charm! So seems the problem come from nginx... if it helps others.... Sorry for the late reply, but I don't think nginx is the problem, I use it to do the same job and act as a proxy as well. I did find that Chromium was very picky ...

Re: Dashticz - Show your dashboard and how-to's!

Sorry for the latency... I'd suggest you try the material skin (a plug-in in Squeezeserver). Then create an iFrame for it. It is so much prettier than the standard squeezebox players. This is a great suggestion, thanks! I had been under the mistaken impression that the Logitech Media Server only ...

Re: Realtime camera feed instead of refreshing image

At the risk of turning this topic into a diary, one final post: A Pi 4B will work with 4 cameras via Shinobi, simultaneously running h.264 at 640x480@15fps in Iframes without too much strain. However, Browsers are not especially suited for live camera streams, and with discontinuities through, for ...

Re: Realtime camera feed instead of refreshing image

This inspired me to try another way to get live video into Dashticz. Got a couple of H.264 640x480@15 fps cameras displaying in IFrames on Dashticz easily enough when I used Shinobi to re-stream them using the HLS (http live streaming) protocol. The results were quite impressive, the total bandwidth ...

Re: Fixing Z-Wave for once and for all!

=> z-wave (and probably other low-power mesh networks competitors) was more designed as a wired system alternative, with devices location never changed, and energy savings as a constraint. Have to agree 100% with this post. I set up my system this way, and all the devices are mains-powered and ...

Re: Local music Player, not a stream player

This is definitely overkill, and probably unusable in this form on a Tablet-sized screen, but it works well on a regular-sized monitor. Its Ampache , which requires a complicated install - unless a Docker image is used, which is the way I went. There are apps available for mobile devices which take ...

Re: Open another port in Dashticx container

Thanks for the quick response, but that only allows changing the port that Dashticz runs on. Ended up installing Dashticz manually without the Docker image, and it went fine but the complexities of Apache2 defeated my integration attempts.

Hi Lokoni As well as Dashticz running in Docker on port 8082 I have a Madsonic music server set up on the same device running directly on port 4040, both work fine. But when the player is accessed through Dashticz, only some music player features work. I see this in the accessibility logs: Uncaught ...

Ploughing my lonely furrow, here's one solution I found. A Madsonic client in a big frame. The Chromium browser that was in use wouldn't work properly, ignoring the guest URL auto logon and spawning logon windows all over the screen on my pi box. However Firefox worked fine, and the latest firefox ...

A media player for local audio content. Maybe I'm showing my age, but perhaps something like this, maybe not so elaborate.....note that this is actually running in a browser. ' Webamp.jpg .

Saw the same behaviour with a Chromium browser on a PI4B. High CPU usage until Dashticz client reloaded.

The Remotec ZRC-90 can do this. Buttons support double press, and I believe long press as well, and it works in Domoticz.
