I use ImageSalsa weather edition.  You can add more data than I'm using.

It can be done with PHP, if you can use it on your site.

Tincam can do that to, not free but it could handle several cams.

That is already displayed:

You have to play with it. You can change colors and move text around also. My image gets washed out from sunlight. That is why moving cam.

Maybe a bit off where this topic has headed. Weather Display also includes a "tags list" This is a list of tags for additional info eg %hum% Humidity %apparenttemp% Apparent temperature. You can basically put in anything you want. In the computer's menu on the bottom left hand corner type in tags in the search bar. There should be a text document. Just Copy the info you want displayed, paste in the box in the top center of the tags and overlay and it should automaticly show up. You may have to use the space bar and enter button to position it.

Both the pictures as to what WD is generating and whats on the site the same size?

You should be able to see the stream and overlay in the Webcamcapture window on Weather Display.

Is it there if you look and see what WD is streaming?

Yes they are the same size. On wd webcam capture stream the overlay is working properly. On the site it shows up on the still image but when u go to the live streaming cam it's not there

You're using an overlay with the IP cam too right?

I had to ditch mine in the ip cam setup before I used the one I've got going in WD.
