Webcamviewer_XH
facilitates displaying an image that will be refreshed after some customizable
interval. Its intended use is to display the current snapshot of a webcam, which
places the most recent image in the same place.
Please do read this documentation, before you encounter any problems!
Webcamviewer_XH couldn't be tested so far in various environments. It is a so called BETA version. Use with caution!
Webcamviewer_XH is a plugin for CMSimple_XH. It requires a UTF-8 encoded version. JavaScript has to be enabled in the visitor's browser to let the images be automatically refreshed.
The installation is done as with many other CMSimple_XH plugins. See the CMSimple_XH wiki for further details.
The plugin's configuration is done as with many other CMSimple_XH plugins in the website's back-end. Select "Webcamviewer" from "Plugins".
You can change the default settings of Webcamviewer_XH in "Config". Hints for the options will be displayed when hovering over the help icon with your mouse.
Localization is done in "Language". You can translate the character strings to your own language, or customize them according to your needs.
To enable Webcamviewer_XH you have to configure "autoload" to 1, or if you want to save some resources, insert the following on each page, where you need the functionality:
{{{PLUGIN:webcamviewer();}}}
This will cause every image with class="webcamviewer" to be refreshed periodically after the configured interval.
