Any way to add custom URLs to "Gadgets" menu (for security cam video feeds)

(1/2) > >>

DeaneG:
Is there any way to add a couple of web page URLs to the theater mode Gadgets menu?  I would like to be able to observe my security cameras' video feed pages within MC21's theater view, accessible by pressing buttons on the remote.  Or is there some existing mechanism that works within theater view?

I tried File->Open URL with "Add stream to Web Media" option checked. But I can't figure out how to play web media. Should it appear in the sources tree on the left pane of the display view?

Matt:
Just Add > Webpage the items under Gadgets.  You might have to click Nest after you add them to nest them properly.

RoderickGI:
Matt's method (Options/Theatre View/Add) will use the default internet browser MC uses (Options/Tree & View/Web Browser, which may be different to your Windows default browser), and show the web page internally.

You can also specify a specific browser by linking to an external program, as per this post: http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=98130.msg678364#msg678364

PS: Search is your friend.

DeaneG:
Roderick and Matt, thanks very much. I checked the wiki and searched the forums but came up empty handed after 15 minutes or so.

RoderickGI:
Ah well. Yes, search is your friend, but sometimes he is a stingy friend, and doesn't share his secrets easily.

I hope one of the solutions works well for you.
