    It's kinda hard indeed to display video at all in html5. There are 2 options, de HTML5 Video api (mp4 etc. but different per browser) or the other one (not sure how i named it). The last one just refreshes the image link it expects every 1 (or i might even have set it to 2) second. For now i didn't added an option to chose refresh rates or FPS, since this is something you would want to store per device and not in global settings.
    Not sure if this is valid for all security cams but embedding a cgi video stream can be as easy as:
    <img alt="" src="[your camera URL]/videostream.cgi?user=user&pwd=pwd">
    The demo page of my DoorBird uses this same method and works perfect including refresh. See also https://www.digitalham.co.uk/embedding-cctv/

    Which brings me to my next question, is it possible to code your own plugins or widget or is this something for the future?

    Own plugins and widgets is something for the future, but if you really want to it should/could be possible now.
    The problem is with my dev environment not easy clone-able to someone else :smile: Allot of depencies i didn't wrote down or saved. (You can contact me on Slack if you want to give it a shot tho )

    A future release is going to be based on Vue JS, where you could write your own .vue file as a widget/plugin.
    Vue files are html, js and css combined in one file and really easy to understand <span>:smile:</span>

    Edit: By the way, i never found that solution you are posting. I could look into a quick fix for now :smile:

    I am using HomeyDash v0.0.19 on an older tablet (Asus Transformer TF101) but the page loads very slow. Page is white for > 10 seconds before the page is displayed, the configation page is quite messed up, etc.

    Does anyone experience the same?
  • swtttswttt Member
    The slow load is kinda normal (something i am trying to reduce tho). Configuration page messed up is something new. Whats messed up about it?

    Some sort of class names were displayed through the button texts on top. Looks like a non complete loaded page or something, now I can not reproduce it anymore.

    After my first successes I ran into an issue.

    My camera is a Dahua DH-SD22204T-GN-W where this string does the job: http://admin:pw***@192.168.1.38/cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?1

    This works fine in Chrome, but unfortunately not on android (chrome). Not on my phone nor on tablet. I tried to end the string with the &t=10 parameter, but that does not work either..

    Suggestions are welcome :)
    I have the same issue, all working on my mac but no running video on my Android kitchen tablet. Any idea's?

    How do you have a wallpaper in the beta?

    My screen stays white, i can only adjust the transparency of the widgets
  • Priknr1Priknr1 Member
    the wallpaper should be the same as you set in the homey settings I think.
  • JesperJesper Member
    Does somebody already use philips hue in combination with HomeyDash? Can you see the current state of the Philips hue lamps on HomeyDash (on/off, brigthness, color).
  • swtttswttt Member
    @Maurits_P
    Indeed, the background is set from within homey his settings.

    @Jesper
    Hue works, but just on/off and dim.

    Homeydash copies the background of your homey, try adjusting homey's background and check again in homeydash.
    If this doesnt work try to clear your cookies and try again.

    Yes it worked, just selected a new wallpaper and then back to the old one thanks!

    Only the first wallpaper of the homey set won't work.. the others do appear in dash

    And will the lamp status be synced when I use the hue app (or Google Home) to switch them on?
  • swtttswttt Member
    Homeydash syncs with Homey using websockets, so if anything changes in Homey it does as well in Homeydash. 

    Short answer, Yes. Everything is in sync even when using the Hue app to switch.

    Cool. But I just learned this is not the case for the LIFX lights (yet) because there is no bridge which Homey can sync with.

    Played around with HomeyDash and wanted to have some icons I like... see picture.
    Found most of them here https://www.onlinewebfonts.com/icon/
    I don't know if you have plans to make a dark theme? If possible I want as much as possible black.

    Wow, great. How can you add new icons manualy?
  • swtttswttt Member
    Only possible doing an install using the CLI. Just clone the github repo, edit the setup.json and add the icon filenames there. Then place the icons somewhere in the assets/icons folder (can't remember the path exactly). Install it using the athom cli, and they should pop-up :)

    Be sure to install the alpha branche tho. Master branch is still the current stable release. Alpha branch is the same as the current beta release in the appstore.
  • TallguyTallguy Member
    I'm running the beta version and am very pleased with it. However, when trying to use Homeydash on my Ipad2 on Safari (all up-to-date), I get a popup with the text '[object Object]' and a close button.

    Any idea how to solve this?

  • swtttswttt Member
    Huhm... can you check your bearer token? And make sure its the right one. 

    Or arent you using the workaround with bearer token on iOS?
  • TallguyTallguy Member
    edited June 2017
    yup, using the bearer token. I copied the URL from my local PC (where it all works) to my ipad, but there I get this error. This also works fine on my iphone6, but not on my Ipad2
  • swtttswttt Member
    Is it working if you remove the bearer token again (or uncheck the checkbox if there is one).
  • TallguyTallguy Member
    nope. already tried that by typing in the address of my homey. Perhaps another browser? but which ones are supported/working except Safari?
  • swtttswttt Member
    Safari should work, you added it to the homescreen as app? You might be able to delete it there, add again it so it erases the localstorage.
  • TallguyTallguy Member
    edited June 2017
    I already re-installed the ipad completely from scratch, so it's vanilla. But even then....
    I just restarted Homey itself to see what that does.

    to be continued...

    EDIT: it almost wanted to do it, but after I saw the 'warning screen about the useage of Homeydash' it gave me the error again. I va't even login to homey now from my Ipad.
    Perhaps it's time to get me a cheap android tablet and test it again
  • swtttswttt Member
    Huhm...weird...can you try to login in the cloud first just from safari? https://YOURCLOUDID.homey.athom.com
    And check if it works then... There are some more people using it on an ipad tho. :/
  • TallguyTallguy Member
    edited June 2017
    message "sorry, this homey is not connected'. Also this occurs on my PC

    EDIT: even after another reboot of Homey I get this message.
  • swtttswttt Member
    Huhm...seen this issue before on Slack. Might need to contact Athom. (Or it could be that that were error messages about "no auth" or something...
  • TallguyTallguy Member
    edited June 2017
    @swttt  I contacted Support yesterday. Let's see and wait what they come up with.

    My Owntracks isn't working either, so I guess there's something very wrong here :(
