hi guys new to this list, so hope you don't mind me adding my 2c here - just wanted to check that you've taken a look at silverbackapp.com as a reference interface for this project. It doesn't have an observer mode, just runs usability test capture (screen capture + headshot) from a Mac, but has a fairly nice, simple admin UI - worth a look and I think you can get a 30 day trial for free. If not, sing out and I'm happy to do a screencast of my installation.
hope that helps and good luck with this project - it's definitely needed!
