"Ghost" icons disappeared ! Thanks.
I can see that full-screen views are switching between cameras. How can I control it ?

There will be a handle at the bottom center of the screen, used to display the camera tray. When clicked any other cameras will be presented in the tray. If you click on them, it will update the fullscreen video stream.

Hi guys,

Any chance anyone knows how to rotate the camera image in html?

I have a foscam FI9961EP camera which can only flip and mirror but not rotate.

Thnx in advance!

There are 2 cases:
1. Using direct link to snapshots from cameras
2. Using links to cameras in domoticz.

Ad.1. Full-screen vies are refreshing according to refresh parameter but thumbnails are not shown. Moreover, main/full-screen view switches between cameras randomly (refresh: 1000). It seems to me as it's too fast ???



Ad.2. All look pretty fine but they do not refresh at all:

Hello,
I have 4 cameras in my dashticz but one of them isn't displayed. The 3 others do work.
The camera giving me problem is an Amcrest IPM-721S.
According to them the snapshot command is : cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?1
Here is my CONFIG.js :

Code: Select all

blocks['cam_buanderie'] = {
        type: 'camera',
        imageUrl: 'http://admin:[email protected]:7800/cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?1',
        refresh: 1000,
        width: 5,
        height: 220
}

If I enter this URL in a browser the image is shown just fine. But within dashticz it doesn't work. Maybe it has something to do with the user:password string ? I know I could use the camera idx from domoticz and put it into dashticz, but if I do it this way, it slows down my raspberry system drastically. So it's not a solution for me.
Thank you

It could be because because you passing your credentials via basic auth (i.e. before the '@' sign), which is being blocked by many browsers now. It maybe that's not what wrong here, but its worth trying to rule it out. There maybe some other url constructs that you can use, e.g. below.

cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?1&loginuse=admin&loginpas=[PASSWORD]
cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?chn=1&u=admin&p=[PASSWORD]

Btw - Amcrest are rebranded Dahua cameras. You can check their urls here: https://www.ispyconnect.com/man.aspx?n=Dahua

Hi, I am really looking forward using your camera setup.

i've tried but couldn't get it to work. does it work on the latest Master Branch?

Thnx in advance

[pimseb]

I had to install beta. Master branch didn't work

Works like a charm in Beta, thanks a lot!
hopefully it will be release in the master branche soon!

If I may take the liberty to add a suggestion to you great work, I would say; it would be cool to have one big picture that rotates all the cameras every X seconds with a small preview of all camera's in the bottom. if you click on the specific (rotated) image you will see the view you have already created. Nevertheless fantastic setup and definitly something I've been waiting for! Cheers.

[pimseb]

That's a great idea.
clinkadink : I tried all the cgi-bin possible for my Amcrest camera with user, pass but the cam always sends a popup that asks for user/password. The only way to get the picture in a browser is user:pass@server:port and it unfortunately doesn't work in dashticz
Maybe I need to change the camera

You could try using the camera url from domoticz. Or add your cameras to zoneminder and use the zoneminder url

That's a shame. I have seen this many times before. Even in Dashticz. For me, user:pass@server:port works in any browser, but it does not work in Dashticz. I have to use server:port?u=user&p=pass configuration. But Trigon raised a safe bet, the Domoticz camera stream will work - and it will save you from buying another camera. Cheers

Yes, that is possible. I have something very similar for my Dashticz Plex component. It basically cycles through each item indefinitely - with animation of course I will add it as a feature request.

Cool!! That’s sounds great! Cheers

Also I am curious now what you did with plex?

Its a 'carousel', like a photo stream, that cycles through all the media that the family are watching, or have watched recently. I added a webhook in Plex and connected to Domoticz as a dummy device. I then just styled it in Dashticz

Great work!! this plugin is work so much better that the previous option.

I am also suffering from the "screen flipping" issue.

Currently I have 2 camera's (more planned) and sometimes (not always), when selecting one camera for full screen, the shown image will flip to the other camera once every x seconds. The swap is very short (less than 1 second) and seems to be in sync with the image refresh.

Keep up the good work!!
