Cool.

But how invasive is the native app?

Also, night vision isn’t working on mine.

Not invasive in any way. Gotta remember although the hardware is Chinese, the firmware and app are written by an offshoot of Amazon.

 

[Domon]

Also, since they now have rstp the native app is unneeded if you didn't want it.

I'm gonna continue to use the native app for viewing, but use the rstp stream to have blueiris record locally continually

 

[Valve1138]

Cool.

I’ll check it out.

RTSP is just for viewing the stream?

As opposed to?

 

[fly]

As opposed to?

You saw that was a question, right?

 

[Valve1138]

Looks like the Wyze Cam needs “special” firmware.

Must be some beta thing.

I’ll have to look when we’re home.

Yeah.

Or in my case it’s what the surveillance software likes to receive from a camera.

Amazon has been fucking up with that for a bit. There was that thing a while back where you could see where a gift you got someone was dropped off. Not normally an issue, but combine it with Secret Santa on Reddit/Imgur/whatever a d you got a mess.

I'm surprised anyone's shocked at all.

When you pay nothing for a service, you're the one who's being sold.

ehhh, you know im tending towards siding with your previous course of action on this one.

This is not what wyze shoulda done. Its a oneoff firmware that istn gonna get future updates. I dont get why rstp is so hard, especially considering the other firmwares have done it. It may be a business decision that if people have rstp they wont be locked to the wyze app

Ahh.

Well then.

Maybe I’ll just go with some HikVision stuff that Synology directly supports.

And doesn’t require fucking about.

I dont see it for 184?

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

Nevermind, there it is

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

None available at that store. I went into WalMart for nothing

Reviewing some third party code today.

In a header file:

#define ever ;1;

In source code:

for(ever) {
    ...
}

Apparently while(1) isn't creative enough for the programmer.

I know next to nothing about M.2 standards and shit. I don't see anything that looks like a socket, but I figured I'd ask you guys. This is the Chineseum board that I have. No M.2, correct?

Amazon product ASIN B06WWHJHT4

that is correct. No m.2 for you.

That said, i love that we're getting less and less discrete cabling and components. The m2 drive i have in my main pc has the thing booted by the time i can turn the monitor on.
