The cam's software is able to automatically shoot pictues and email or upload them, but an option for programming pan- and tilt-movements is still missing.
That's why i wrote a little toolkit (shell-scripts) for this:
Using html-request, "roboctrl" serves functions for panning and tilting the cam, moving to preset-positions, defining these presets, shoot and upload, email or download pictures, ...
You can code own programs which "roboprog" processes to the cam.
If you provide a version of "wget" which includes the "--post-data" option, the scripts also run on an avm fritz!box. (tested with avm fritz!box fon wlan 7050 (14.04.26))
Simply download this package: roboctrl v.0.0.2
CenterICQ:
Alternating msg-sounds (tested with centericq 4.21.0):
I wrote this because i wanted a more decent msg-sound to be played after the initial message of the current chat has arrived.
The functionality is given by some kind of a timer: During a specific interval the alternative msg-sound is played and afterwards you can hear the initial sound again.
Simply add these lines to the "external"-file and copy this file into the centericq-directory of your home. (Additionally you should look into the "sounds"-file for duplicate associations of msg-sounds.)
xscreensaver-integration (tested with centericq 4.21.0):
If you are running centericq from a terminal-window on your X-desktop, you may want to change its state to "away" at the time, the screensaver becomes active and reset to "online" if it becomes inactive again:
Copy the two files away_chat and away_checker into the binary-path of your filesystem.
Then simply add these lines to your xscreensaver-configfile and choose "chat_away" as your new screensaver.
Additionally you can use "away_chat [state]" to permanently set centericq to the given state. Now it will stay there as long as "away_chat" keeps running.
(Clearly you should disable the internal away-handling of centericq, to not interfere a correct functionaliy of this extension.)
