    What's Wrong In This Picture?

    The $19 USA-made ones I found last year are now $25. I'm confident that'll come down a bit in the future, it may take a while, but I think it will...I sure hope so!! :cool:

    The official "WTF" thread

    Excerpt: "Ryan Hinton turned 18 a few weeks ago, family attorney Michael Wright said, who described him as a “fun, loving and good kid...." Can someone explain why all these "good kids" are getting involved with stolen vehicles, guns, etc. and winding up dead at such an early age? IMO, a big...

    Trouble with network storage after reboot

    Insure that the Windows Update did not change your NIC's network properties from "Private" to "Public." Although I don't see how this would cause your particular issue but an update has been changing the network properties and causing other network issues for many people. :cool:

    What's Wrong In This Picture?

    All I can see is that it's packaged different from my HF flag; on mine the field (stars) is at the front, stripes in back. The one shown is the opposite. I buy $5 HF flags and trade them with peopel flying torn, frayed flags....they give me theirs and give 'em one. Yeah, it's China-made but...

    Amazon Driver Throws My Package

    Because like too many, he's a piss-poor driver and/or never learned. They can't back up with only mirrors so many can't even use a backup camera when it's available. :confused: I have a bigger question......many, if not most, delivery companies have a policy that prohibits their drivers from...

    Bought my first camera ... hope I didn't make a mistake

    Yes, a 1/3" sensor is barely suitable for a 1MP res so a 4MP with that 1/3" will be poor in reduced lighting especially if any motion whatsoever.

    no video on a live feed using Luma 501 DVR

    +1^^. Since it's an analog cam the BNC connectors for video and the 12VDC multi-taps for power are notoriously problematic with intermitant connections, especially if there's also CATU-5 to coax baluns involved; vibration and moisture can make them worse.

    Working on Truck

    I'd be pleased with 5 years out of lawn mower battery as 4 seems to be my max, regardless of brand. If all connections are clean and tight I'd suspect the battery. You said it "would not engage" it doesn't have a Bendix, does it? Do you mean the solenoid would just click and the starter motor...

    Yes, God forbid you didn't keep the capstan clean of built-up zinc oxide and on a hot day you pull the 8 track out and realize too late that 4 feet of tape is hanging out of the 8 track and is stuck to and wrapped around the capstan! :facepalm::banghead: My CCR 8 tape with Green River on it!

    New Build for Blue Iris System

    +1^^^. A 8MP/4K camera with a 1/2.7" sensor will provide terrible performance if there ANY movement under reduced lighting conditions. See the ideal sensor size for MP image at bottom. IOW, a 4K/8MP camera should have a 1/1.2" sensor. Also, put Windows, Blue Iris and BI's "DB" folder only on...
