Hi,

Possible : yes
Easy : not so easy

... Thinking ... If you installed kmotion2 on all three machines, they
would all be building a 'images_dbase' dir, kmotion2's javascript
could be modified to look for different feeds from different servers
but this would not be easy, it would be fairly major work plus a world
of hurt with security.

...or....  you could install kmotion2 on all 3 machines and using
something like nfs/samba map the 2 other 'images_dir''s into a special
folder in the main 'images_dir'. A bit of mucking around with the
python back end and you would (I think ... lol) have access to live
view & archive view to all cameras all from one interface without
pulling bandwidth unless you were viewing.  This is not something that
kmotion2 can do now but it is a possibility.

Would anyone else find this functionality useful ?

If there are a few other multi server motion sites I will try and
implement something.

Cheers

Dave
