Sitemap group of video streams

Setup, Configuration and Use Items & Sitemaps

It’s late in the day, going bed now, but hopefully someone can answer this easy question because I’m out of ideas… sounds simple enough.

In my sitemap, I’d llike a Group widget on the sitemap, that when clicked on, opens up three camera streams: Lounge, Hall , Kitchen.

I created three String items:- i_CAM_Lounge, *_Hall, and *_Kitchen and put these in a g_CAM group…Then, on the sitemap I added a Group and set iitem= to g_CAM. Then I realised that isnt going to work because all that will do is display three strings. The strings were the url of the video stream and the enconding= needs to be mjpeg

MMM??

Text label=“click here for videos” icon=“camera” {
Whatever you do for video from string A
Whatever you do for video from string B
Whatever you do for video from string C
}

The Group widget in sitemap only allows default views of any members.

But you can use it the same “click for more” mode as a Text widget, if you wanted to show the Group status, say.

Group item=gLights {
Switch item=blah
Switch item=bleh
}

The sub-items need not even be group members.
