[QUOTE="Downzy, post: 11592, member: 10837"] G'day, Let me just say that aside from some Pascal and Cobol programming about 8 years ago, I don't really have any idea about programming. I'm hoping that someone out there likes this idea enough to take it on as a project. Due to my limited experience, I have no idea how easy/hard/impossible it may be. However, the rate that Media Portal is growing and improving makes me think that there are some really switched on guys out there in the forum, that might be willing to take on the challenge. I have this possible scenario that would be nice to be able to acheive. An IP camera at your front door, that can easily be viewed in a Picture inPicture type arrangement from Media Portal. I've seen software that can detect motion in the data stream from a camera, and start recording. It would be nice if there was a plugin that could monitor the stream from an IP/Web camera, and if someone comes to the door, it would detect the motion, and pop up a little window in the corner of the screen so that you can see who is there. I assume that it would be already possible to view the camera stream using built in functionality of Media Portal, but a little extra functionality built on to that would be great! Let me know what you think, I hope someone likes it enough to have a crack at it... [/QUOTE]
