NHWA Posted September 28, 2013 Posted September 28, 2013 Is there a way to insert a picture from a local drive into a notification? I have programs running that txt me when someone comes to the front door. I have a CCTV DVR that independently sends me an email with a picture of the front door when motion is detected. I was going to set up the DVR to take a "snapshot" of the door every second or so and then save that to a local file on my hard drive and then rewrite that so the picture is always pretty close to realtime. Now, I want to be able to take that picture and include it in my isy notification txt so that I only get one txt. Is this possible?

abuttino Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 This is possible actually, I've done it several ways. For example, my camera uploads a picture to my website every three seconds. If the motion sensor trips, it tells my phone and then the phone downloads the latest picture of my website and posts it into a notification on my android phone. Demo: http://WordPress.tinozplace.com Look for "Fun with android notifications" Things needed: Tasker AutoRemote AutoNotification. If you get those, I'll help you out with inserting a picture into your notification.
abuttino Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 You are quite welcome. I love the things that Tasker allows you to do.. If you have any questions, don't be afraid to PM me..
