Album art squeezebox on HS hard drive

[Broes]

Is there a way to show images from the hard drive (HS server) as a camera snapshot?

I use the SqueezeBox plugin and this plugin generates for every squeezebox two images that I want to display in IH.
The files are located in the html dir of HS, for my living room squeezebox like;

C:\Program Files (x86)\HomeSeer HS3\html\SqueezeBox\AlbumArtwork_Squeezebox Woonkamer_1.current.jpg
C:\Program Files (x86)\HomeSeer HS3\html\SqueezeBox\Squeezebox Woonkamer_1.current.jpg

Any help is appreciated.

Yes, I do the same. Just use the URL to the file:

http://www.xxx.yyy.zzz/SqueezeBox/AlbumArtwork_SqueezeboxWoonkamer_1.current.jpg

Change the www.xxxx.yyy.zzz to the ip address of your homeseer server.

Cheers
Al

Hi Al,

Thnx for your fast response.
Unfortunately it shows only a camera picture in IH, so I am missing something.
Any ideas?

What happens when you paste that URL in a browser? It should bring the image up as well.

Then I get the message that the other side (www.xxxx.yyy.zzz) refused the connection.

Do you run HomeSeer's web server on a non-standard port? Something other than port 80? If so, add :aa after the .zzz in the example so http://www.xxx.yyy.zzz:aa/ and change aa to the port number you are using.

Yes, port 86
But no luck with adding this port number, I get a "404 bad request" back.

If there are any spaces in the filename, replace those with %20

Looking at your original post and my original reply, it looks like I might have dropped a space.

Progress!
Indeed a missing space.
Both pictures show up in my browser
So I will play around with IH to see if I can get further from here.
I will let you know.

Edit: Working!
On my phone I've got the pictures, so I have to find out why I am not getting the "Live Camera Widget" option on my tablet.
Edit2: after restarting my tablet it is working too.
I am a happy man now, thanks very much!
