Camera domoticz

[nickos]

Hello

Is it possible to display the camera in the dashboard domoticz.
If so how.

thank you

[mbliek]

This is not possible. Only by modifying the original html page

[nickos]

and someone would have already done it?

[gizmocuz]

if you associate devices with the camera (for instance a dummy switch) on the dashboard you will see a camera icon on that switch.
clicking this will show the live camera.

maybe this works for the time being...

Is there any more info on dummy switches and associating a camera as I like the idea but not having much success?

TIA M

Create a Dummy switch
Set your camera and in the bottom add this switch as a device

what device did you use to get that nice camera icon graphic?
=update found this am reading up on http://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Custom_ico ... binterface

I can be ok with this method but ideally I would like a virtual sensor type of Camera where I could just do this professionally. I tried using a text virtual sensor which is a utility type (nice) but I cant attach a camera to a text virtual sensor (bug?)

Found a better way to do this.

using a Ping Hardware switch (pinging my camera IP) then attaching the camera to the new Ping/Switch

this will show real status that the camera is online and viewable.. I love it.
