Client, Does it Exist?

I have a system running (21 cameras) and I have a bunch of LCD's around the building all setup through VGA connected directly to 1 pc. This allows me to run ( as of now xlib_shm) to display the monitors of all the cameras. This has been working very well however my client has requested a change.

Does anyone know of a client where I could have One big window (on the top left or top right or whatever) and the rest of the screen has the other cameras....and the big box rotates around all the cameras.

Does such a client exist? I could probably establish this with creating some kind of web client however I do not believe it would work out too well.

Has anyone ever run into this?

Thanks!

Is this what you are looking for?

It is called zmViewer and is written in QT.

You can find more here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/zmviewer

problem with that client is it dosnt allow all the cameras to be displayed...and it displays them with the boarder/window

like xlib_shm.... it allows all the videos to be displayed with no line boarders or windows around them

Im looking for basically a modified xlib_shm that just allows one big box camera that rotates through... wondering maybe if someone else has encountered this request

Viseon Viewer (aka Zoneminder viewer for windows) does what you want, although it acts a bit buggy when it cycles (at least for me). I use it in a similar way, displaying one camera on a large TV, but it doesn't cycle. Again, the software does support it though.
