OpenSurv

OpenSurv is a free application that transforms your compatible device into a dedicated device to monitor video streams or images.

Features

Self-healing and health monitoring including watchdogs: · Every stream will be monitored by an external watchdog process. If the stream gets killed somehow, the watchdog will try to restart the stream/process. This gives you a very robust surveillance screen. · Stream up/down detection and auto-repositioning of connectable streams on the screen layout. For example: if you stop a camera (or just stop the server on the camera), OpenSurv will detect this and will recalculate/redraw the screen with the still available streams. The same is true if a previous unconnectable stream becomes connectable. All without any user interaction.

Automatically position streams (no manual coordinates calculation needed): · Auto-calculate coordinates for every stream monitored. · If you are not happy with the autocalculations, you can customize them yourself.

Rotation of screens (autorotate or with keyboard control): · You can configure multiple screens and cycle between them in an automated way or via the keyboard. · In the case of dual monitors, you can configure multiple screens to be cycled between for each monitor.

Multiple types of streams: · You can also specify "image streams" to monitor images next to or instead of camera streams. The images will be auto-updated if they change remotely.

Dual monitor support: · OpenSurv will auto-detect if a second monitor is connected at boot and will automatically start the configured screens for the second monitor.

Vertical monitor support: · To display a screen vertically, set rotate90: True for that screen.
