More questions - WDL
« on: July 21, 2014, 01:59:58 PM »
Posted on the WD Forum but I thought I would see if anyone here could provide some answers:

I am going to have several webcams available to connect up with WDL.....

1)   Is it possible to change "webcam" on the button or is it hard coded ? I mean change the word that is.

2)   What is the purpose of the drop down in the webcam config of Link Type -> Top/Parent/Blank ?

3)   If I set a refresh rate of 5 minutes, will it grab a new image when user opens up my page or do they get    an old image and have to wait until 5 minutes passes to get a new image ?

I got all three questions answered. 1) Probably not....(?)....that "definite maybe" makes me want to investigate that further. 2) It's in the docs but in a section that makes no reference to the fact it applies to webcam as well 3) It grabs a new image immediately then refreshes at the set interval.
