Hi,

I know some have already asked for this but I could not really find an answear.
Is it possible to add a picture of a comera to the dashboard without an additional click?
My current dashboard is in the attachment.

When I cloick on the cam icon the popup with the picture works fine but I like to see it directly.

Best regards

I would really like to know also! Can't find it in previous postings :oops:

I found this, but it say's it cant be done! viewtopic.php?t=4911

I have my camera (android app on a old Android phone) and door bell (Select Plus from the Action store) working in Domoticz. I also made a virtual switch that goes to "on" if the push-button is pressed at the front door. That virtual switch has the camera icon in the upper right corner. When I click this icon the video pop-up window appears and I see the stream (or still shot) from the camera at the front door. I would like to see that pop up appear automatically when the push button at the front door is pressed.

I would like to know if this is possible, and when yes how to do that!

I also have a unused tablet hanging in my livingroom as a kind of dashboard/status screen for Domoticz. So I think it would be a nice addition to Domoticz if this would be possible.
Notification with a snap shot of the camera via e-mail is no use in my situation. Especially when I am at home. For security reasons I would like to know who is at the door if the doorbell rings. I can not see whom it is, because the door has no glass.

Kind regards,

Doggieman

@BioBier: If you use a seperate frontpage (lot of work) it is possible to have more camera's visible (permanent or with one click). Look for frontpage in the forum.
