The subject says it all. I've been asked by a fellow member if I had considered writing a roku app that would give access to camera feeds from HS. I have no problem taking on this challenge, but before I get too deep into it, I just want to gauge interest. I don't have cameras yet, so I would have to buy one, so before I jump in with both feet, I wanted to see what people thought.
A use case that I could think of are:
Door bell rings
Turn on TV (via whatever method you have)
Use MeiKu to open the Homeseer channel
show feed (or feeds).
Or just use the channel when ever you want to view the feeds. My hope is that I can possibly get up to 4 feeds on screen at once, but I won't make promises as I haven' delved into the Roku docs too far yet (just started digging tonight).
I'm also curious if anyone has any other ideas for the channel such as control, status viewing, etc. Once again no promises, because I don't know what the platform will or will not support, but I will try my damdest to do everying we think would be a good idea
