Hi Andrew,

I assume the weborbiter picture you show above is a Dinamo edition ;)

According to the documentation one can have several web orbiters you just have to change the port.
But what then, how can one access them ?

Lets say one for a PC, one for a phone, one for an ipad, ...
I assume thats the idea.

When you log in, you select which orbiter you want to access. Indeed, a bit of a pain to do each time, which is why chrisbirkinshaw has offered to make logins 'permanent' in this post: http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=8880.msg71469#msg71469

Will i followed the new Wiki, on the latest snapshot, it loaded perfect, thanks for the documentation

However if i click on any of may cams there is no picture at all

Are you using motion cams? ie are you using the motion package to do motion detection on your cams?

Hi Viking,

Yes thats exactly the idea. When you access your Web orbiters from http://192.168.80.1/lmce-admin/weborbiter.php you will be asked to login as a valid User and then you will see displayed a dropdown listing all the Web orbiters you have added to your system... simply choose the one that you want to use and click (or touch) the 'Open' button. Once your using the Web Orbiter you can click the 'Logout' button that is displayed underneath the Orbiters screen area in your browser and this will log you out and display the 'Login' screen again.

All the best

Hmmm... thats interesting. Ok we dont have any USB motion cams here on our test systems (just IP Cams and they work fine). but one of the team here has a USB Cam on his home system...I'll ask him to see if he can reproduce the problem. Thanks.

Sorry we have no plans to release our Dianemo UI1 skin. If we do a refresh of the design at some point we may make the older design available then ;-)

All the best

I agree. Would you sell this UI by any chance? Or would I need to buy a complete system from you to get this?

Hi Raymond,

Thanks glad you like the design.

Yes we use a combination of HA Designer and Gimp or Photoshop to create our UI's. If you search the Forum you will find numerous threads and Video tutorials by Thom who is the acknowledged master of creating UI's for LinuxMCE - we learnt what we know from him to a large extent. The rest was just a lot of trial and error... the tools currently are really not very friendly and really do demand that you have a very good understanding of the technical structure of the system. The hope is that we can change this over time - the objective is to make the process much more about design so that designers can directly get involved.

All the best

We currently do not have any plans to make our UI's available separately to Cascade or Dianemo systems. In fact separating the UI from either Dianemo or Cascade would not work as the UI's are tighly coupled to features & changes we have in our builds.

So currently you would need to purchase a NerveCentre or a complete system to get access to these UI's.

All the best
