I have added an IP security Camera viewer as a proposed new plugin as ticket 221. The zip file has full documentation on installing and using the plugin.
The zipfile also includes a IP Security Camera emulator to evaluate the plugin. The camera emulator also runs on an Enigma2 STB(can be same STB as plugin is run on).
The plugin supports the following:
1. View IP security cameras as multiple cameras on screen (4 at a time).
2. View the cameras as a picture-in-picture image anywhere and any size on the TV. This does not require the STB to support PIP as the decoding is done in software.
3. Automatic switching between multiple cameras.
4. Freezing the switching on a specific camera while still updating the feed from that camera.
5. Pan, tilt, zoom the camera(s).
6. Configuration allows for support of multiple makes/models of IP security cameras at the same time. The camera has to support snapshot mode sending a jpg image. Several IP security cameras support this. The default configuration included is for Foscam IP security cameras.
7. Record cameras on a fixed interval basis.
The plugin has been tested on DM500HD, DM800HD and DM7025. Testing on further STBs will be appreciated.
It can be downloaded at http://openpli.pli-images.org/ticket/221 - please leave feedback on the ticket.
