Client 3 on Ubuntu 24 - Kiosk Screens

Client discussion
1

I am re-creating our view only camera kiosks (we have multiple) and wanted to start off using Ubuntu 24.

I successfully install Client v3 but am wondering how to achieve the same effects as in v2.

Can you set the View Window to Full Screen?

Can you set the client to Auto-Start and at Full Screen?

Edit: I tried to install v2 client on ubuntu 24 but there’s a lot of dependencies that cannot be installed and I don’t know how to add the appropriate sources list for them:

The following packages can’t be found with the base sources on Ubuntu 24

libavcodec58 libavformat58 libavutil56 libmpv1 libqt5core5a libqt5gui5 libqt5network5 libqt5widgets5 libsdl2-2.0-0 libswscale5

Decided to go with Ubuntu 22 with 20 backports with Client v2.

Until v3 has feature-parity with v2, we will stick with v2.

@mrosu hey! We are working on these features. You should expect them in the next version of the v3 client. Thanks

Looking forward to it.

When the next version of the client does come out, please consider an administrator setting or mechanism to prevent general users of the client, and in particular kiosk users, from viewing or gaining access to the camera details and especially the RTSP URLs as these URLs contain the user names and passwords for accessing the RTSP streams. This is not information that the general users should have access to. Currently the RTSP URLs can be viewed from several places within the client tool.
