Software for viewing multiple IP camera streams on RPI using only console.
-
Configuration is available in main file. It's simplified as much as it can be. Everything is being autodetected. In case ABS_X/ABS_Y is wrongly detected, You can set it manually.
-
Based on cameras count, software will automatically arrange videos on the screen.
-
It's prepared for touch screens, so when You click one of the streams, it will automatically go full screen.
-
If You don't have touch screen, run it with --notouch parameter.
-
Zooming camera after touch may take 2-3 seconds, that's normal, nothing to worry about.
-
Have fun, report bugs!
