    The feed looks good with compression and framerate but you were able to keep the same resolution. Does it support lower res as well like 1080 for less storage. That is the only killer with a lot of cameras it's nuts the amount of storage needed for a higher than 1080. I mean I typically do about...

    Acceptable picture for me even night mode. If it's cheap and it works well and you have better control over things why not...

    No I talked to Igor fairly candidly he was pretty cut and dried seems to be paranoia nothing nefarious going on. You can now compile the firmware yourself or send a PR to generate firmware with a fully open Divinus streamer. All Ultimate firmwares include both Majestic and Divinus streamers, so...

    IDK it seems like Igor is saying the data is collected to ensure the security of the software if something big happens they can intervene and issue an update to their code if there is some great catastrophe with the software and that it is not nefarious nor personal data collected from the...

    Thanks for this I also have been made aware there are privacy concerns with OPENIPC untested or proven someone told me that it reports to certain servers. Talked about openhisilicon github being open sourced. Good to see there are security conscious folks but from what I am told it is harmless...

    There are a great many reasons you being old enough to know already should have some easy understanding of the success of telegram you just haven't taken the time to observe the why part think average internet user not ITGuy knows enough to be dangerous. It's fairly self-evident. I'd argue...

    Understand that totally I finally took the leap this last year actually with telegram it was like either that or don't get a specific job at the time. I was going to say no but I watched some interviews with the owner of telegram and learned a little history about telegram. It was a bit of a...

    Thank you sir it helps if you solder the wire then solder the pad lightly then throw down a gob of flux I shake like a whore in church as they say and I've supprised myself with this method. Lots of good info there to go off of for starters. As far as resolution it is mostly limited by camera...

    TTL isn't that hard really honestly Joint Test Action group was a bit more finicky back in the day using buffered cables and such this is only like 4 pins power ground TX RX the hardest thing about TTL is getting your Voltage right for your processor some require 5v others are 3v don't wanna...

    Excellent thank you both for pledging favor of support for Open Source IPC's not saying that you are happy with where they are that's fair but the fact that we can have the discussion makes all the difference. Yeah I mean the only cameras I have that are not in service at the moment are my old...

    Irrespective, the questions still remain... What I don't get is why we shouldn't want firmware security? What I also don't get is why we should be forced into "cloud recording"? What I also don't get is why functionality disabling through firmware is a thing among camera vendors? Why not simply...
