![]() I now have an add-on called that I can install in to XBMC. In Winrar I then selected ZIP rather than RAR and clicked OK. With Winrar installed I just right clicked the folder in Windows Explorer and from the menu I selected Add to Archive. Now you need to ZIP up the ontgardencam folder into a zip file called Now rename the folder curitycam to the same name e.g. You should size your new icon.png file to 191×186 Unless you want all your IP cameras to have this default icon ? If you plan to add the Security CAM Overlay add-on instances to a menu in XBMC, then I recommend you change the icon.png file to a screen grab of that particular IP camera. Now edit the default.py file in the text editorĬhange the curitycam to the same thing as you named it in the addon.xml e.g. “Front Garden CAM”Īlso change the add-on id= from curitycam to something else, I named it “ontgardencam” I ended up with two instance of the Security CAM Overlay add-on, one for my front garden CAM and one for my back garden CAM, so I called the first instance “Front Garden CAM”Ĭhange the name of the add-on. Look inside the curitycam folder there is a file called addon.xml edit this in a text editor. The downloaded file is called extract this in to a folder called curitycam. First you need to download the latest version from this link and select Frodo or Gotham version. OK here is how I got two IP cameras in to XBMC with the Security CAM Overlay add-on. ![]() One instance of the add-on for each IP camera you wish to add in to XBMC.Īlso I have customised my Aeon MQ5 skin and added a CAMS menu so I will throw up a few screen shots of that as well.Ĭreating the Security CAM Overlay add-on instances So what’s new for me in Gotham and with this add-on? I wanted to add a second IP security camera, the add-on at the moment only allows you to add one IP camera, however you can do a little hack and modify some of the add-ons files to effectively make it in to two different add-ons or more. You can find the Security CAM Overlay add-on thread here on the XBMC forum. I’ve written about this great XBMC add-on previously here, however I have just updated two of my HTPC’s to OpenElec Gotham and have done a little more work with this add-on so thought it was worth writing an updated blog post about it all. ![]()
