Title: Message
Thanks - I will take a look at the software. Personally I am not a big fan of Gotcha!
 
I tried integrating Arne's software with HomeSeer, and gave up in the end I used www.weather-display.com and this script from 'Skibum' in HomeSeer every 30 minutels or so. Job done in less than 5 mins. - no that has to be a first.
 
sub main ()
'Get Data from Weather Display for use with Homeseer
dim f, fs
dim data1, day,month,year,hour,minute,temperature,humidity,dewpoint,barometer,windspeed,gustspeed,direction,rainlastmin,dailyrain,monthlyrain,yearlyrain,heatindex
Set fs=CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set f=fs.OpenTextFile("enter the location of the weather display log file here")
Do While NOT f.AtEndOfStream
data1 = f.ReadLine
Loop
f.close

How do you find the processor performance with Web-Cam-Control center ?   
 
Not so bad. I run the two camera from two different PCs (Both PII 233 or something like that) The server runs Windows 2000 server, WebCamControlCenter, HomeSeer, my weatherstation etc while the other PC runs XP with Office XP etc running. I tried most of the capture programs and found that they are all memory hungry. I found WCC to be *ok* most of the time. The big problem is trying to get that *sweet spot* where you only capture images that are relevant.
 
 >  PS Very nice site 
 
Thanks, Still evolving but I need to integrate my Weatherstation data into HomeSeer and then display it on the web. This site will be used  by my FujiPad :-) I will also show latest phone calls etc on site as well as the number of times the doorbell has been pressed.
 
Inspiration came >from href="http://zz9.dnsq.org/login.asp?org=/calllog.asp">http://zz9.dnsq.org/login.asp?org=/calllog.asp
I should be there fairly soon with my site if SWMBO gives me some time to work on it :-)
