Led Display Plans

I’ve come up with a list of things that need to be done to the led display… here is what I’ve got planned:

  • Move the LED display to a Linux box, as its currently running under Windows. Done!
  • Utilize the New IP camera full-time rather than the webcam. Done!
  • Add some more RSS feeds and make them more visible somehow.
  • Increase the FPS, either by reducing the resolution of the image, or…? perhaps using a flash applet.
  • Have an online console for viewing messages and images in the queue.
  • Neaten the code so it can be open sourced.
  • Mount the camera and the LED display in a better position. Done!
  • Look into getting a larger display

A bit overkill, only 2 computers would need to be used at the most simple end, one for the web/mysql/ftp server, the other to control the display and control the webcam/IP camera.

Any other suggestions? Please post a comment
