Toggling multiple Orion views on a LCD

We have been using Solarwinds and Orion for a few years now. Its the best!

Anyway we want to use an LCD monitor to toggle through a few views to show the City map overlay with all of our sites and maybe a view with the top 50 events, a view with down nodes, and a view with wireless APs.

Is there any product to work with Orion and XP that will allow these views to toggle on the LCD?

I imagine it would be some screensaver or other software and we already have the views windowed.

Now that is one thing I'd like to see as well - I'm having to move the server to a different room so accessing all the info at once will be difficult.

We use something called "Web Screen Saver Builder"

Cheap, easy to use, does a good job of doing it... Great for a machine sitting there and cycling through pages...

We installed virtual desktop for XP and have a power script that changes to each desktop every 30 seconds. Seems to be working well.

Its projected on a 46" Sony LCD. Looks nice and its easy to tell if something goes down.

I have a 50" Plasma TV I use to display Orion on in our datacenter. I use Firefox with the ReloadEvery and TabSlideshow extensions. I put a different view on each tab, and TabSlideshow will alternate through each one on a pre-specified time schedule. ReloadEvery sends a refresh to the page every 5 minutes or so in order to prevent timeout. It works great!

Do you have a photo with sufficient distance to obscure anything private? I'm sure we'd all like to see.

Sure - I'll see what I can put together tomorrow morning and put it in the post.

Here are the links to the Firefox extensions:
