    First IP Camera system

    Wow, that’s great! I set mine to 15 FPS and I’m running 18% CPU. I went through the optimization thread but that’s where I landed. I set up the hardware acc for intel. I should go back and see where I can squeeze a little more.

    Asus routers and VPN

    Asus routers and VPN

Nord explained I couldn’t use the VPN and use these apps. Is there a workaround for streaming service...
