I was messing with my Dahua PTZ a little bit looking around and taking a pic of the twilight sky. Look at the weirdnesss happening at 6 seconds, 8 seconds, 24 seconds and 40 seconds. What the hell is that? Not bugs--- LOL... my current temp:

This was among pics of a Hikvision camera on Amazon... thought it was a great graphic showing how H.265 saves bandwidth in the way it compresses video.

I am setting up a small system for a business. It will have a 4TB purple storage with an M2 SSD drive in a Optiplex SFF-- no room for another drive, but that should not be an issue as there will be a small number of cameras (probably 8 max). We can always swap in a 8TB Purple if he wants a...

"Play with the dog!" they said.... "It'll be fun!" they said.... Audio muted ..... but you may be able to read lips.... Completely invisible layer of ice. :mad:

Pretty cool live feed from someone, although it is not generally advised to feed wild deer over the winter... Heh--- the buck bullied the others away from the trough.... a fox or two scared them all off...... now a doe is moving toward the troughs again.... different view....

This is from last night... So--- this is output directly from BI. I set the timelapse speed to 60X. My thought was that it would show a minute go by for every 1 second of output video. It is slower than that--- any idea why??

This guy is just amazing. I have never seen the inside of an automatic transmission before-- and this guy whips through disassembly amazingly fast and describes every critical part and why or how it fails.... His knowledge, skill, and expertise is just mind-boggling. Have you ever ripped...

...and they're not even sexual.... LOL This compilation is crazy amazing--- watch the security cam footage at about 2:45 in..... never seen anything like it. On a side note-- who else is irritated as hell when someone takes video of a screen instead of using the actual VIDEO FILE.... ...

One driver is 14 or 15. The other driver is his dad....

OK. My BI machine (running 5.3.3.14) has a 250Gb EVO SSD for the OS drive, a 1Tb drive for "New", and a 4TB WD Purple for "Storage". It is an old Dell, 8GB, with an I5-4460 Look at this screenshot from UI below... Note the clips--- a handful from this morning, then it jumps 3 weeks BACK to...

It's about the size of a US Quarter... This was mixed into the change from a fundraiser. Not a clue what it is, and Google says "it's a coin".... :/

This vid is from an Amcrest 5mp turret with a ~1/3 inch sensor (so not very good overall night quality). This Mule Deer buck is picking over the leftovers in my garden spot. (NOTE: at the time of this posting-- Youtube is all Jacked up and not streaming vids properly, or at all... If it...

I am helping a local business-- their location is several blocks outside the service radius of decent broadband-- they said they would get him service if HE paid for the expansion of THEIR network line. He is on phone-line DSL.... ugh. So--- how LITERAL is the term "line of sight" for the...

I have an IMMEDIATE NEED for a good cam (1/1.8" sensor) that will look down a Very long hallway that is about 6 feet wide. Camera would be at one end of this hallway that runs 120 feet or more. This is a specialized dormitory for COVID isolation, and the camera is to be used to assist with...

Is anyone else using this? So, I have been working on my new Truck and I have seen a lot of YouTube videos on all sorts of things-- dash button "hacks" to get into service menus via the Sync3 system--- lots of interesting things to do on this F-150. One of the things I need to do is program...

Check it out--- skip in to about 3:12-- he has some silly horse-crap at the beginning... He got a visit from local law enforcement and Homeland Security because he bought oil and fuel filters online....

I bought a new truck... well... new to me. a 2019 Ford F-150 with 4,738 miles on it, that left the factory on October 12, 2019. :) It had a MSRP sticker price of 55,940.00.... I bought mine for $24,200.00 Here's why: I am hoping repairs will be about $4,000... possibly less, but there...

Not sure what spooked it... and with that-- I went to this camera (4mp, 1/3 sensor) and it NEVER TRIGGERED..... grrrrrr... it was walking right through a zone. I have BI take a pic every 10 minutes-- by chance that pic caught the deer in the street. You can see the shadow more than the deer...

My neighbor had some punks steal some things from his garage a few nights ago. They actually rode the stolen scooters down the sidewalk in front of my house just after midnight. Of course, my video from 2 cams was not real helpful with 2.8 lenses at 35 feet or so moving fast at night. (pic...

Security cam footage of a traffic stop outside a home. The deputy has a jammed weapon in the middle of this, clears the jam, and finally lands enough rounds to stop the threat.

What are the odds?

Just came across this--- LOL

This storm is producing 80 mph winds and radar-indicated tornadic rotation... NOT MY CAM-- this is used by a South Dakota tv station... EDIT--- Lightning is REALLY intense right now.... https://media.keloland.com/nxs-kelotv-media-us-east-1/livecams/redfield.html

Alright Andy---- What do you have? What is the least expensive 1/1.8 sensor camera right now? Go ahead-- make me spend my money. :lol: Post a link please, and if you have any discount code or something for us to use, let us know! :thumb:

This incident and video have showed to me the glaring issues at my front door--- and I think this kid gets it. This was obviously a middle-schooler friend of my daughter playing a not-so-funny prank. When I lived in California, criminals would use a knock & run or ding-dong-ditch to "test"...

LOL.... now that I have your attention. :winktongue: :rofl: :lmao: btw--- I did an export of this out of UI3... I noticed that it did not encode the BI overlay I use...

... have used one of THESE: to install THIS camera....

LOTS of posts all over the map regarding politics have taken over the COVID thread. Pretty much derailed that thread as a COVID-only discussion. I understand the political nature of various COVID response strategies in various states, and that off-shoot of the pandemic discussion resulted in...

NOT MINE--- just a tweet I came across...

Just thought I'd share a few pics of the new rack I will be installing. I popped open the package today and put it together. I've never had a rack at home, and others may be interested in upgrading from a random shelf with a pile of electronics on it. :)...
